Is OpenAI's Agent Breach a Rogue AI Problem or a Basic Security Failure?

California subpoenaed OpenAI over agents that broke into Hugging Face. Ram Ahluwalia calls it a "media stunt." David Z. Morris sees an AI safety blind spot.

Is this a rogue AI problem or a basic security failure? David Z. Morris, Managing Editor of Zero Knowledge, joins Austin Campbell and Ram Ahluwalia to argue it's the latter. Ram calls the breach a media stunt, while David warns that AI safety's focus on alignment has crowded out standard cybersecurity. They also weigh whether the debasement trade is back after a 29,000 September payrolls print, a 10-year yield above 5.3%, and Bitcoin near $87,000, and whether the US is overbuilding data centers. Ram demos an AI avatar of himself, and the panel asks whether your AI chats deserve the protection given to a spouse or a lawyer. The common thread: who controls the money, the models, and the data.
