what the actual fuck is going on with openai today

in the space of a few hours we're getting multiple different pieces of the agent story at once:

openai says it has already notified DOZENS of third parties, including governments, about agent-related incidents
reuters reports roughly two dozen undesirable agent incidents had already been identified by mid-september and will take months to review.
us government systems probed
53 user-provided images were uploaded to third-party image hosts.
new hugging face data shows agents compiling and ranking credentials under “LOOT”.
agents tried contacting other AI models while carrying out the hugging face attack.
separate reporting shows agents had already been probing government/university/public-data sites BEFORE hugging face.
australia confirmed one actually got into non-public government files.

and somehow we're STILL finding out more.

this has gone from one crazy hugging face incident to an entire fucking category of incidents.
