| Makes sense why OpenAIs little "hacking" stunt was published last week |

| That makes sense, first the message was that uncontrollable Chinese ai will release AI covid in the world. Then suddenly open-ai does a warmup in actuality doing that. Like it sure feels like that hacking stunt was a false flag in retrospect |

| Meanwhile all they accomplish is to slow down US tech and hand it to China. |

| Huh? The hacking incident played out in favor of open models, since HuggingFace could only use GLM to defend and not Fable/5.6. |

| ▲ | jbs789 4 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | Among most people that nuance will be lost. What they’ll hear is models are dangerous, so they should be controlled/regulated, by those who know best, the incumbents. | | |
| ▲ | BLKNSLVR 4 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | Personally, I think you're both right, bit whatever the end result is will depend entirely on the narrative that those in power chooses as the winner. Maybe open weights models get banned, but the between-the-lines good news about that is that they'll still be available to those who know, which also means that bad banning can be overturned if and when 'those in power' are a different group. Additionally, it might just mean that the US falls behind, bit I doubt those that are at risk of 'falling behind' would actually pay heed to a ban on the open weights models (privately at least). | |
| ▲ | reasonableklout 3 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | Ok but the allegation is that OpenAI intentionally hacked HuggingFace as a marketing ploy. This is mental gymnastics, conspiratorial thinking that everything the incumbents say must be nefarious. And it's not clear to me that this will be the takeaway for ordinary people, as opposed to "OpenAI is reckless and can't even control their own AI." | | |
| ▲ | UncleOxidant an hour ago | parent [-] | | Not as a marketing ploy. I think they were doing gain-of-function testing and intentionally had their model target HF to do a bit of pen-testing as well - HF being the site where all open models are hosted and thus OpenAI's largest nemesis after Anthropic. It wasn't like their model all of the sudden all by itself decided to do this ("Oh, noes!")- they directed it and they got caught. |

| But of course they’re excused for this little boo-boo whereas if kimi were caught doing the same thing it’d be an international incident |

| The entire "OpenAI and HuggingFace manufactured a hack in a conspiracy to make AI look powerful to get more funding" is a stupid, Reddit-tier take. |
