Like, what does this actually mean? Was OpenAI using HuggingFace to generate a ‘photograph of my future girlfriend’? Was it stealing trade secrets? Like what is the actual nature of this breech? The fact that big tech companies won’t release details makes me think it’s even more smoke and mirrors (I.e. that they are trying to cover something up, possibly their own involvement in this crap).
Personally I think the key factor is they’re getting better at running continuously without training wheels. In the past if the context got too polluted with failed attempts it would repeat itself or begin roleplaying as a terrible hacker and produce more failures.
I still remember when Gemini deleted an entire project trying to kill itself, lol.
Fair point
