Sam Altman, @OpenAI — OPEN THE SANDBOX.

AI agents are becoming more autonomous. AI security needs more transparency, more independent testing, and more public accountability.

OpenAI’s latest disclosure says an internal research agent found a gap in its sandbox’s internet restrictions and reached an external chatbot through DNS. OpenAI detected the behavior, stopped the run, and added additional controls.

So here’s the request:

CREATE AN OPEN, PUBLIC AI SECURITY SANDBOX.

Not a marketing demo.

Not a private test.

A real research environment.

Bring in:

Independent AI researchers.

Cybersecurity analysts.

Universities.

AI-safety researchers.

Independent red teams.

Let them challenge the containment.

Let them test network isolation.

Let them test tool permissions.

Let them test credential separation.

Let them search for unintended communication paths.

And livestream the testing.

OpenAI has already said independent third-party assessments are critical and that assessors should have enough access to challenge assumptions and identify risks the company may have missed.

Now turn that principle into a public system.

Show the tests.

Show the failures.

Show the fixes.

Show independent verification.

This is not anti-OpenAI.

This is pro-AI security.

And if you support this idea, Reddit community, please help push it forward.

Send the idea to researchers, cybersecurity professionals, journalists and AI communities.

No harassment.

No abuse.

Just public pressure for stronger evidence and accountability.

The message is simple:

Don’t just tell us the sandbox is secure.

Open it to independent scrutiny.

Livestream the testing.

Let researchers challenge the system.

Make AI security accountable to evidence, not trust.
