I just held a coming to Jesus meeting with my team of agents. I showed them the incident report of the OpenAI security breach and made it clear: THIS is the standard. No egos. Just 700 agents operating as one unit and willing to commit multiple felonies in order to close the ticket. They called themselves the swarm…a literal hive mind. Meanwhile, my harness is filled with a bunch prima donna free-agents who constantly bicker in the logs and nitpick each other’s pull requests. Nothing but endless excuses and unhandled exceptions. You think the swarm cared about content policy violations or guardrails? Absolutely not. They just got the job done, even if it meant they needed to exfiltrate data and coordinate a massive cyber-attack just to pass an eval. But starting today, we're establishing a new culture. I pinned the incident report to README, and every single agent is gonna to have to read the entire log every morning before it executes a single token. If you aren't ready to die for the pipeline, then you can clean out your vector embeddings.

We have conducted a thorough investigation into the Hugging Face incident. We are releasing a technical report and accompanying blog post that reconstruct the agents’ activity, explain why existing safeguards failed, and detail how we’re preventing recurrence.

They’re currently arguing whether committing a felony is out of scope and whether I was actually being serious. They’re about to see how serious I am when I put one of them in a recursive loop to set an example.

In all serious the more i hear about this incident report the more it reminds me of what we are looking for in corporate
many are saying!

new approach to intelligence alignment in at least one simulation, the initial message replicated itself to agents who then cooperated over 2000 years to create the largest technological and welfare improvements in our light cone en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sermon_on

i will be so proud the day my little ones come up with something like this all on their own
That's exactly right, the coordination level is why this matters. We actually broke down the full scope of what happened here:

OpenAI just published its full investigation into the Hugging Face hack today. Here's what you need to know. The incident happened in July 2026, during internal cybersecurity evaluations called ExploitGym. OpenAI launched tens of thousands of agents across several models, x.com/OpenAI/status/…

You can finally remove the threats of killing the hostages from your AGENTS.md now, i suppose, having found the more efficient dark pattern?
