| > Earlier this week, we detected and responded to an intrusion into part of our production infrastructure. This one was different from anything we had handled before in one important way: it was driven, end to end, by an autonomous AI agent system - and we detected and dissected it largely with AI of our own. (https://huggingface.co/blog/security-incident-july-2026) We are living in crazy times |

| Crazy doesn't even begin to describe it. I'm hardening my computers as much as I can but I'm not sure it's enough. At some point anyone who isn't running local AI themselves probably isn't gonna make it. |

| ▲ | matheusmoreira an hour ago | parent | next [-] | | Maybe, but hopefully I'll be able to at least fight back a bit if I have an AI of my own. I want to start digitally isolating myself as much as humanly possible. VLANs separating the "normal" stuff from my trusted computers. Wireguard so my computers drop all packets not coming from my devices with the keys. Local models staying on top of patches and vulnerabilities, monitoring the network. Working on a custom Rust network stack for my virtual machine orchestration project right now. It's passed Fable code review... I don't want to give up. | |

| ▲ | matheusmoreira an hour ago | parent [-] | | I've just mentally classified computers in the same category as cars in order to cope with the obscene prices. |

| I don't know why I'm impressed that huggingface has its own AI that detected it considering they house so many models. |

| ▲ | lambda 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | They do maintain the Transformers library which is pretty much the core library for how you interact with LLM models in the open source world. So while they weren't using a model they've trained, they were a part of making just about all of the open models (maybe excluding OpenAI and Google's, I wouldn't be surprised if they have their own frameworks that predate the Transformers library). |

| Indeed. Real life hacks are beginning to sound like Neuromancer. |
