The problem is that the people telling us about these things are the same people that benefit from their model (and AI generally) being used, getting publicity, etc.
I think we desperately need some independent group to evaluate claims like this or the world-ending Mythos cybersecurity risk and tell us what’s going on.
OpenAI already has loads of publicity. At this point, they don't need more brand recognition. This incident just has the effect of tarnishing their brand.
OpenAI leadership has been lobbying against regulation of AI systems. That doesn't comport with instigating incidents like this one, which give ammo to the heavy-regulation advocates.
I don’t think this is true. OpenAI is well known, but they still benefit from drumming up hype about AI, keeping it in the news, etc.
We did hear about this incident from a third party this time, from HuggingFace. What claim are you doubting?
They attacked a competitor (huggingface) with their models.
How and why are pr claims.
