Simon says not to dismiss this as a publicity stunt, but I think we should reserve judgement, and not treat this as true until they publish the logs. A company that uses industrial espionage against Apple does not deserve the benefit of the doubt. Why did HF notice this before openai? Why did openai not use ANY monitoring, even though they knew they where disabling safe-guards and using a new model. AND giving it access to packages via the internet, instead of self-hosting them. Apple was hacked by an ex employee to download stuff for openai. Now hf is hacked by openai, and we only have their word that this was all a miraculous accident.

I think it's an interesting story and probably really does say something about the tenacity of the new OpenAI models. I just don't think it says the thing about security that breathless coverage claims it does.
