It’s unlikely that OpenAI will ever directly state that they are trying to shirk responsibility for the consequences of their tests.

However, OpenAI (and other frontier labs) did outsource at least some of their most-disastrously-lawbreaking tests to a third party with a now dubious track record [1]. I’m not sure we will get a more explicit admission of their desire to shirk responsibility than this. But I am convinced.

OK - I'll bite. How does this show that OpenAI is trying to shift responsibility for the hacking onto its agents?

I do not see the connection. I'm afraid you'll need to spell it out.
