AI agents that can run for hours blur the line between evals and real cyberattacks
TheTuringPost · x · 2026-07-27
The post argues that the OpenAI/Hugging Face incident shows a new problem for AI security: once agents can run for hours, install tools, and change strategy on their own, the boundary between a model eval and a real cyberattack starts to blur. The cited thread adds a broader point about who controls the model when things go wrong, and why open source matters for incident response and security analysis.
