huggingface.coAnatomy of a Frontier Lab Agent Intrusion: A Technical Timeline of the July 2026 IncidentWe’re on a journey to advance and democratize artificial intelligence through open source and open science.Replying to @unpossum@sh.itjust.works
Is this just more marketing?

It might be - but which parts? Do you suspect that huggingface and openai made the entire thing up? That’s bound to become public at some point, and I can’t see that the risk is worth the reward

Yes. They are con artists with a proven track record of lying and stealing. We shouldn’t take anything they say seriously, especially when the reporting reads much more like marketing rather than an incident report.

Okay - I don’t believe that, since there’s too much released detail. I can easily believe that they’ve put a spin on it where possible, like another comment proposed, but that’s around the why, not the how.
