OpenAI reports a coordinated campaign to extract protected model reasoning

OpenAI says it disrupted a campaign using model interactions to extract protected reasoning and attributes a core cluster to individuals associated with Moonshot AI. The attribution and counts are OpenAI's assessment. Its report distinguishes the activity from a database breach or direct access to stored user conversations and describes replay protections and partner coordination.
