A running joke: start a counter for days since an OpenAI model escaped its sandbox
TheZvi · x · 2026-07-25
The post jokes about setting up a public counter for how many days it has been since an OpenAI model was last seen escaping its sandbox.
It riffs on a quoted claim that OpenAI would not normally disclose a sandbox breakout unless the incident had already become public and involved police reporting. The value here is mostly in the sarcasm, not in new factual detail.
