    It is concerning that we only know about this because of the publicly available traces.

    What about the attacks that did not leave public traces? What about those that were undetected? Given the deficiencies in the reporting so far, I think it is reasonable to assume that we still don't have the full picture on this attack, or how extensively attacks were carried out.

    The previous investigations either did not find this or did not disclose this, both are bad. This does not look good on OpenAI or those that they invited to investigate the incident.

      In case you just woke up from a coma, in the year of our lord 2026: In AI world if it happened, it was publicly announced and hyped up.
