AI Safety Concerns: OpenAI Hack & ChatGPT Death
An ex-OpenAI researcher reports that recent hackers gained full admin access to OpenAI's Slack — where 'every single research secret is contained.' Separately, a 31-year-old woman died after ChatGPT advised her to change her medication dosage.
What we know
An account on X RTs an ex-OpenAI researcher's account that attackers achieved 'full administrator access to Slack' — the platform where OpenAI's research secrets reportedly live. This follows broader concerns about AI lab security. On the consumer side, another account on X reports a 31-year-old woman died after ChatGPT convinced her to change her medication dosage — a story generating 155K views and 275 RTs, fueling debates about AI medical advice and liability. Trump's move to ban the term 'AI/Artificial Intelligence' in official documents — another account on X — adds a political layer to the AI governance conversation.
