The Hugging Face incident story was truly unbelievable if you read / watch the details
It didn’t really seem that way? Leaving containment seemed more like a configuration oversight than a skill on the part of the model. Accessing HF involved an 0-day but the commentary I saw didn’t indicate that it was a next generation hack.
Given that AI exists, and can scan or otherwise find vulnerabilities, maintainers must do so because threat actors inevitably will.
It remains to be seen whether the whole race will improve security generally? I imagine not?
Much more probably: they developed a cyberweapon and tested it in the wild. The victim caught them so they invented a cyberpunk history to increase the interest of potential buyers for that weapon.
It’s laughable to suggest they “elected a CEO and power structure”.
When/if we meet aliens, they will have evolution. And they will organize themselves in social power structures. Both are examples of basic emergent complexity properties of any such system.
So it is completely believable that AIs would form a power structure, with some form of CEO. That is just how reality works, such systems are more efficient so they happen.
Because a CEO is a specific thing with a specific meaning that just isn’t relevant here. It’s laden with human meaning that is irrelevant to a statistical model.
Really you’re trying to say that the bots coordinated their efforts, and perhaps one of them was delegating tasks.
This type of structure is very common in tech, in load balancers or queues of service workers, containers and hypervisors, et cetera.
Power structures that seem logical and efficient to humans are not so for a gen AI model. If everyone knows what needs to be done and no one has any ego or character traits to manage, then everyone can simply perform the next task as it arises.
Its absolutely absurd to suggest that the bots elected a CEO.
If you placed me in the position of those models in that sandbox, I wouldn’t have been able to escape the sandbox to save my life. Let alone hack hugging face.

Nah, it was like:
Open weights models will catch up soon enough, and then it’ll be totally fucking wild
You are believing a notorious bunch of liars.

I basically just don’t believe you, and can’t be bothered looking.
You’re anthropomorphizing a statistical model. It’s laughable to suggest they “elected a CEO and power structure”.

Why are you even using the term CEO?
AI learned from humans, and humans texts use the term CEO. Why wouldn’t the AI’s also use the term CEO?
Because a CEO is a specific thing with a specific meaning that just isn’t relevant here. It’s laden with human meaning that is irrelevant to a statistical model.

But the ai could generate text to that effect, if it was statistically likely.
What?
Typo, fixed
Still lost sorry.
Which part is confusing?
What are you trying to say?

Have you read all the code on the planet?
If not, don’t feel bad about it.
