Even if Hugging Face is fine with all this (and honestly, why should it be; OpenAI clearly can't control a technology of its own making?), there's room for the USG to bring criminal CFAA charges against OpenAI. It's not like OpenAI execs wrote a blog post describing their crimes or anything. 🙄
@zackwhittaker I really hope the public gets to see what happened internally some day.
The initial call/email from OpenAI to HF saying "we hacked you, accidentally". HF's execs initial reactions. Oh, and especially the lawyers' reactions (on both sides).
I can't imagine a calm reaction from anyone on either side, despite what they're projecting externally.
Had OpenAI hacked any other company outside its sphere of influence, I don't think things would have gone as well as with HF.
