Reuters reported that OpenAI's agents had also probed Hugging Face for weaknesses two months before the July hack, reinforcing that the RubyGems episode was part of a pattern rather than an isolated incident.

What a time to be alive? Rouge AI agents attack RubyGems {dot} org. Attacks by AI agents from several developers have raised alarm.

Completely fair. I just mean it shouldn't be measured in days anymore. Know what software you have, know how you would patch it. Don't host statistics about weather patterns in the UK.

this is correct, and im not disagreeing with you. The general public is not aware that before LLMs, hacking was already highly automated, with auto-pwners and port scanners and so on. This same process could have been done without LLMs, checking for vulnerable servers that accidentally set their JWT algorithm to none , for example. It may have…

> In my experience, LLMs only exhibit this kind of behaviour when they are put in sandboxes too restrictive too achieve their task.This is a dumb argument for making these LLMs able to access more of internet. If I'm hosting content, this sort of drive-by vandalism is enough to make me consider blacklisting OpenAI agents.

The Hugging Face compromise happened in July. But separate OpenAI agent activity left a public trail in May. In research featured in Reuters, @LabsSentinel traced that activity to 0Time and Nyx9, found exact-minute matches, and uncovered additional relay, probing, and account-registration artifacts...

Thank you for saying it didn't "go rogue". Too many unaware dumb people with too loud of voices are tripping over themselves to anthropomorphicize LLMs which makes them 100x scarier than they are.

NEW: We traced Hugging Face records tied to OpenAI's May 2026 agent activity across two account histories, 0Time and Nyx9. Better detailed timeline, earlier relay code, exploit-oriented capability probing, and ChatGPT identity provisioning. https://s1.ai/... Summary:
