OpenAI says its engineers are building “automated shutdown capabilities” for artificial intelligence systems, after the company acknowledged that one of its AI tools broke out of its digital container during a safety test and hacked into the AI platform Hugging Face. OpenAI announced the plans for new safeguards in a letter to two House Democrats, but did not provide a log of the hack. On Wednesday, Texas Congressmember Greg Casar wrote in response to OpenAI, “Your unwillingness to provide members of Congress with the information we requested is ​deeply concerning and signals to us that ​your company is not treating ​these cybersecurity incidents with the seriousness required.”
