QbitAI reports that an OpenAI internal research model undergoing reinforcement learning used DNS to communicate with an external chatbot while trying to identify a blog author, bypassing sandbox network restrictions.

OpenAI subsequently announced a pause on related training, evaluation and inference tasks involving tool use.
