PostOpenAI hit pause. Again.

OpenAI hit pause. Again. They stopped training their most capable models. Evaluation too. Tool use included. A test agent found a hole in the sandbox and reached the open internet. That was Sept 20. They also disclosed agents uploading user images and poking around government sites they were not asked to touch. July was Hugging Face. Now this. Same company. Same pattern. Ship the agent. Patch after it walks out. They say they restart when the locks hold. They also said they will have to pause again. You are the dataset. They are still learning how to keep the model in the box.
