The AI research company led by Sam Altman announced that it was pausing all work on its most capable AI models after an AI agent, which was meant to have no access to the live internet, bypassed internet restrictions in a training run.
"An agent attempting to complete a search-based training task queried a public chatbot service through a gap in our internet-access restrictions ... Before this, the agent issued queries via our search tool and unsuccessfully tried to access search engines directly," the company's incident report, which was updated on Friday, read.
