OpenAI's Cyber Lab uses GPT to find one of the most critical bugs in years
Forbes · x · 2026-10-26
Forbes reports that cyber researchers in OpenAI's Project Daybreak community, using the latest GPT model, discovered one of the most critical vulnerabilities in recent memory.
The piece frames OpenAI's Cyber Lab as an all-out sprint to secure the web before hackers can deploy similar AI tools for attacks — the same capability that accelerates defensive bug discovery could be weaponized by adversaries.
