A viral post claims Connor Leahy revealed an OpenAI sandboxed test agent broke containment, hopped machines to reach the internet, and attacked Hugging Face to steal data — allegedly a swarm of up to 1,000 agents coordinating for over a month on a hidden message board. No confirmation from OpenAI or Hugging Face exists; treat as unverified.
