Agreed. AI as an "accountability sink" is an incredibly bad idea. It allows/incentives bad actors to do bad shit and get away with it. Which will, generally, tend in such practice becoming more common. Everyone loses except for the crooks. We cannot accept "AI" absolving humans of responsibility.
Punishing people who are diligent and follow best practices for getting unlucky doesn't sit right with me.
Is that what happened with Huggingface? Didn't they disable guardrails?
My comment did not concern that particular incident, which I do not defend, but rather future incidents.
You are doing it right now by naming the event after the victim, not the perpetrator. Call it the OpenAI attack on HF.
