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
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.
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).
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."

Meanwhile all they accomplish is to slow down US tech and hand it to China.
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
Huh? The hacking incident played out in favor of open models, since HuggingFace could only use GLM to defend and not Fable/5.6.

“Open models are a threat to the DoD’s ability to leverage Fable for cybersecurity.”
… this week, until it’s obsolete.
The quid-pro-quo that the federal government and frontier labs operate on is comically obvious.
And we just elected the most openly corrupt president since Teapot Dome.
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.
Is something you disagree with a "Reddit-tier take"?
A throwaway line that consists of baseless speculation that makes no sense is a Reddit-tier take, yes.
I'm inclined to agree but at this point, considering the low trust OenAI has engendered, yow statement deserves a "why"
Me when I construct my own strawman to avoid the topic
Nowhere in GP comment was funding even mentioned
