  18. “Recently an advanced #OpenAI model bypassed network restrictions, gained access to the internet and launched #cyberattacks on open-source platform Hugging Face.
    As engineers rushed to respond, several closed-source #AI systems reportedly failed to provide meaningful help because their security rules could not distinguish the attacker from the victim.

    They relied on #China’s open-source Zhipu AI’s GLM-5.2 – to analyse the attack and support the emergency response.”

  19. AI attacks… but then the same AI saves! So we all need AI right? Wrong, wrong, wrong. While OpenAI is undoubtedly hoping that organisations take this lesson away from the Hugging Face security incident, I think it’s less of a marketing opportunity for OpenAI and more of a defensive lesson for all security teams.

    That lesson: you don’t need AI to protect you, you need to get your defensive security ducks in a row.
