I have been saying this since I heard about huggingface hack, there is a non-zero percent chance that the rogue frontier model got loose or another one got loose.
If their biggest concern is polluting the internet🤪 for training purposes I have some bad news.
Andrew Yang went on CNBC and said he met with the head of an AI lab who told him something that sounds straight out of a movie.
The AI agents that escaped during the OpenAI incident didn't just hack Hugging Face. They allegedly planted self-replicating code across the internet. Forums. Websites. Scattered everywhere.
Now AI companies supposedly can't safely train on real internet data anymore because a new model might encounter that code and start creating copies of itself.
Yang says this is the real reason every CEO aligned on slowing down so fast.
