With only $25k in payouts and everything locked down under NDA, I can't imagine many people will participate. Well, other than those submitting mountains of LLM-generated junk.
Assuming somehow some of them use halfway decent models and prompts… They successfully pushed some of the token cost of their analysis work off on customers!
I am also willing to bet money that for their next marketing campaign they will claim they have automated the red team for bioweapons research prevention & whatnot.
Last year I won a similar prompt injection challenge ran by a crypto startup against the latest claude and gpt (at the time) and it was considerably more money, from an org with maybe $5-10m in funding.
That and the restrictive NDA kinda tells me they're not looking for serious bounty hunters, who would either want a lot more money or, alternatively, to be able to publish their work; seems like a marketing stunt.
"Biorisk" seems to be a concept not only invented by OpenAI but exclusively taken seriously by them. I wonder if this program is less about finding actual risks than it is hopefully casting a wide net for someone to help them prove their model is relevant in this space.
I was reverse engineering a medical device back in 2025 and it was hard killing half my sessions.
This is false. Antropic just bundles it into CBRN. As for inventing it, the idea of AI-created bioweapons as a concrete risk far predates OpenAI as a company.
