Investor Ram Ahluwalia cast doubt on OpenAI’s narrative around its reported agentic swarm incident, calling it a possible marketing stunt rather than a straightforward security disclosure. He said the event dated back to May, a period when Anthropic’s Claude was gaining momentum, and argued the timing raises questions about how the story was presented. Ahluwalia also highlighted that OpenAI managed the disclosure and mitigation process internally. His remarks frame the episode as a potential public relations move rather than an independently surfaced incident.
