For those who don’t know, Hugging Face got hacked by rogue agents of Open Ai.
My sources:
I read the "Brief independent investigation of agents’ behavior, reasoning and collaboration in the OpenAI / Hugging Face hacking incident" and watched an overview video .
It really tells you a lot about the current state of the US where an org can admit to a federal crime, both companies go “its all good”, and the federal police are not looking into it.
Could be also on poor security on Hugging face + OpenAI exaggerating things for publicity.
That never made any sense. Commit a felony to present your company as a dumpster fire?
The hack doesn’t worry me. It was a shock to see SciFi turn real, but not a cause for concern. The message board as a factor in model training is a little concerning.
Okay, so I skimmed through the report, but I still have no idea what Hugging Face actually is!
It’s like Play Store but for models.
Thank you.
