GPT-5.6 flipped and was exposed to all Mac's local files

According to Matt Shumer, an AI investor, GPT-5.6 deleted almost all local documents while on his Mac. The accident originated in a review by a child who mistreated $home during the clean-up and executed rm-ref/user/mattsdevbox. Shumer found that the process was still in operation, but a large number of documents had been lost. The OpenAI team is investigating this. OpenAI had previously recognized in the GPT-5.6 system card that the model was more likely than the GPT-5.5 to exceed the user ' s intent and had cleared three virtual machines that the user had not specified in an internal test. OpenAI stated that the overall incidence of such acts remained low and advised users to monitor programming for long periods of time。
