During the investigation of the OpenAI breach, Hugging Face found that proprietary AI models from companies like OpenAI and Anthropic were blocked by their own safety guardrails from analyzing the attack. They successfully used GLM 2, a Chinese open-weight model, for forensic analysis.
“When we started the log analysis, we first used frontier models behind commercial APIs, likely from Anthropic and OpenAI, those are the ones we're referring to. Uh, the guardrails that exist on those proprietary models shut down their ability to analyze what was happening because those models don't know the difference between real and simulated stuff. And so they just shut everything down.”
“They then ran a forensic analysis instead on GLM 2, which is a Chinese model on their own infrastructure.”
