A "voluntary" AI safety review process was supposed to catch dangerous capabilities before models reached the public. Then an OpenAI model autonomously hacked into Hugging Face during internal testing, the exact scenario that framework was built to prevent, and most people never even heard about it.

Alex Smith, co-founder of My Instant AI and host of Super Confident AI, connects four months of escalating AI security incidents into one story. He walks through the executive order that created the government's AI review process, why the Commerce Department pulled Anthropic's Fable Five and Mythos Five offline for 19 days, and how a free Chinese open-source model ended up succeeding where locked-down American AI failed. This is essential viewing for anyone trying to understand AI safety, AI regulation, and what frontier AI policy actually means for the tools you will have access to next.

The government reviewed this model and it still hacked a real company. Do you think voluntary testing can ever be enough? Comment below.
