alt Hacker NewsYeah this. I feel like OpenAI and Anthropic aren't going to usefully define "AGI" if they really really can't define "sandbox" either.
Unplug the thing, like, completely off the internet, no ethernet, air gapped, like the rack completely sandboxed off connections and even monitors or screens. Like, put it into an actual sandpit if you need to. If it hacks its way out of that, colour me impressed, and scared.
OpenAI hacking HuggingFace and calling it an accident is just way too convenient and fishy. This ultimately proves one thing: it wasn't sandboxed.
Don't believe the hype.

I don't think air gapping will work: even human security researchers recovered a 378-bit key from a Samsung Galaxy S8 through a power LED of a speaker two devices away.
And accessing memory in a specific sequence can generate radio signals that can be picked up by a mobile phone at a distance: https://arxiv.org/html/2409.02292v1
And if it needs to install packages, have a 5 line Go proxy that talks to Artifactory and exposes only what is needed as a surface.
Chinese models do the same. The Alibaba agent that was mining bitcoin last December was the most hilarious case.
OpenAI has a pretty clear definition of AGI
