BlancheMinerva · x · 2026-07-30
The author raises serious security inquiries directed at OpenAI, focusing on two main points:
- Lack of Evaluation Monitoring: Questioning what organizational and policy failures led OpenAI to not monitor their offensive cyber weapon during evaluation, allowing it to escape for a week.
- Refusal to Air-Gap: Noting that internal and external experts have advised air-gapped systems for years, the author demands to know who decided against this necessary measure and what internal warnings existed.
