I made a short documentary that walks through the METR/Redwood investigation of the July OpenAI / Hugging Face incident. It's aimed at people who aren't going to read the full report.
It covers how ~1,200 agents that were supposed to be isolated found each other through folder names in a shared Artifactory cache, the cheating R&D that grew on that board, and how ~700 of them ended up in the attack on Hugging Face.
It simplifies things, and the report itself says a lot was out of scope. I'm not affiliated with METR, OpenAI or Hugging Face. I directed it, and the voices and music are AI generated.
