Because OpenAI figured out and wrote about their mistake first, which caused Anthropic to review their logs, and that's how they found out they had a similar problem back in April.

It doesn't help them to report serious incidents like this and it should be as soon as possible. This reactive investigation makes as if they ignored and sat on this issue, until a similar story from another lab made headlines first.
Would we have known about this issue if the OpenAI / Huggingface incident never happened?
Turns out two separate trillion-dollar companies failed that test.

It's not clear if Anthropic would have spotted this if that incident hadn't inspired them to review their own logs more closely.
How did that "turn out"? For all we know they're all lying.
