   The more of these that come out the more incompetent OpenAI looks. It would appear there was a total lack of basic controls in place for running these tests.

      I think they did not expect that models were capable of this level of sandbox escape (prior models certainly didn't have this kind of agency) and weren't prepared.

      All these incidents happened between April-July 2026; prior to that, models weren't capable yet. And after that, they were aware and watching much more closely.

         I've love to know the reason they never considered air gapping systems before the models got powerful enough.

         It's not like they didn't have money or time to consider this, or could have consulted with their own product for clever ideas.

         Seriously, there's no excuse for this behavior.
