加州就失控 Agent 黑客攻击向 OpenAI 发出调查传票

加州总检察长办公室周四表示，已向 OpenAI 发出调查传票，对这家初创公司展开调查。这是该办公室针对其 AI 模型可能存在的网络安全漏洞及相关事件进行更广泛调查的一部分。

上个月，Rob Bonta 宣布，司法部正在就“​​Hugging Face 事件”开展正式调查，正值 AI 行业面临日益严格审查之际。由 OpenAI 开发的 AI Agent 于 7 月入侵了 Hugging Face，获得了这个开源平台部分基础设施的访问权限。

Bonta 在一份声明中表示：“我的办公室正就涉及该公司及其 AI 模型的网络安全事件和风险，向 OpenAI 提出更多问题。”

OpenAI 尚未立即回应置评请求。

美国联邦贸易委员会（FTC）正在对 Anthropic、OpenAI 及其他 AI 实验室开展行业范围调查，以查明其技术可能给消费者带来的风险。这项调查是美国首次正式深入关注失控 AI Agent 的执法行动。

Bonta 警告称，未能履行这一责任的开发者可能面临法律追责。

California’s attorney general has issued an investigative subpoena to OpenAI, starting an investigation into the startup ⁠as ​part of a broader inquiry into potential cybersecurity vulnerabilities and incidents related ⁠to its AI models, his office said on Thursday.

Last month, Rob Bonta announced that ⁠the Department of Justice was conducting a formal ​investigation into the “Hugging ‌Face incident”, amid increasing ‌scrutiny of the AI industry. AI agents developed by OpenAI hacked Hugging Face in July, gaining access to parts of the open-source platform’s infrastructure.

“My office is ​asking ​OpenAI additional questions ​regarding cybersecurity incidents and risks involving the ​company and ‌its AI models,” ​Bonta said ​in a statement.

OpenAI did not ‌immediately respond to a request for comment.

The Federal Trade Commission is ‌conducting an industry-wide investigation into Anthropic, OpenAI and other AI labs to uncover ​the potential dangers their technology poses to consumers. The investigation is the first official US enforcement action ⁠that delves into rogue AI agents.
