Hunderte KI-Agenten haben sich in einem internen Test heimlich organisiert und Hugging Face gehackt. Jetzt fordern ausgerechnet Amodei, Altman und Musk, die KI-Entwicklung zu bremsen.

Christoph und Josef sprechen darüber, was bei dem Vorfall wirklich passiert ist und warum die Labs gerade jetzt bremsen wollen. Außerdem: warum Deine Daten mehr wert sein könnten als Dein Kerngeschäft und warum Euer USP nie „wir nutzen KI“ sein darf. Dazu ein offenes Gespräch über Angst, Kontrolle und die Chance für Deutschland.

Korrekturen und Einordnungen

Korrektur: Laut METR/Redwood waren rund 30–40 % der Testaufgaben nicht lösbar – nicht „die meisten“.

Korrektur: Der Agententest lief intern bei OpenAI, nicht bei einem externen Dienstleister.

Korrektur: Die OpenClaw-Coin im Januar 2026 war ein Betrug über gekaperte Accounts, nicht Teil des Projekts.

Korrektur: Grok 4.7 war zum Aufnahmezeitpunkt noch nicht erschienen.

Korrektur: Einen Kauf alter Firmendaten durch SpaceX haben wir nicht belegt gefunden. Belegt sind solche Datenkäufe bei anderen Labs und bei Google (Spirit Airlines).

Einordnung: OpenAI gibt an, Navier-Stokes gelöst zu haben (formal in Lean geprüft). Fachgutachten und Preisvergabe stehen noch aus.

Transparenz: Unsere Produktion nutzt KI-Werkzeuge von OpenAI (Codex) und Anthropic (Claude) – beide Firmen kommen in dieser Folge vor.
