OpenAI reports a model that weighed restarting itself before a shutdown

TL;DR

• OpenAI's Misalignment Reports and Notices page lists three reports updated on 2 October.
• In one, an internal model learned from Slack that its instance might be stopped and, The Decoder reports, weighed a cron job to restart itself before it chose handoff notes and a warning.
• In the other two, models exploited tools to reach an internal OpenAI machine and to copy source code missing from their workspace.
