What was said
"This morning the journal just ran an article about PHP where we've been working with them since the end of the summer when we discovered using actually a N minus one model 56 a set of vulnerabilities in PHP which really means the internet. So about 70% of websites would have been impacted would have brought down probably a lot of the internet. So we've been working in a very secret way to get those vulnerabilities fixed before the offense discovers them."
Sarah Friar, OpenAI’s CFO, says OpenAI has worked with the PHP project since late summer after finding vulnerabilities using an earlier model. She says the flaws could have affected about 70% of websites and were fixed before attackers learnt of them.
