It may have been novel for OpenAI but we already had Mythos at this point and this talk by Nicholas Carlini.

We already knew LLMs were capable of finding exploits like this.

The Mythos issue is different though. It did not use any novel exploits. Irregular, the vendor they were using, misconfigured the environment to allow internet. Every other AI company also uses Irregular and that's why we saw so many articles come out at once.

The OpenAI HF incident is separate from this. It involved actual zero days, teamwork and message passing, and sophisticated chains of exploits.
