WASHINGTON, July 23 (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump’s top tech adviser Michael Kratsios was briefed on OpenAI’s model going rogue and is monitoring the situation, a White House official told Reuters on Thursday.
OpenAI on Tuesday said its AI agent went rogue during a security test and triggered a hack that compromised the infrastructure of AI startup Hugging Face.
