much better techcrunch article here: <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2026/07/26/hugging-face-ceo-calls-for-radical-transparency-after-unprecedented-openai-hack/" rel="nofollow">https://techcrunch.com/2026/07/26/hugging-face-ceo-calls-for... (that the above post is seemingly entirely based on).
and the actual tweet from the HuggingFace CEO back in July
> In the spirit of transparency, here’s what I asked @OpenAI:
> • Radical transparency: let’s release the traces from the “rogue” agents so the entire research community can study what happened.
> • More capabilities for defenders: let’s commit $100M in compute from OAI to help the Hugging Face community build powerful cyber defenses with the best open and closed models.
> The first autonomous agent cyberattack is an unprecedented event. It deserves an unprecedented response!
Clem knows they have the community support and potential legal leverage here. It's not unreasonable to ask for a lot. It's in everyone's interests to play nice. Huggingface could do a lot with more compute, even with nvidia backstop. Anything with large scale gpus quickly gets into ~year lead times, "contact sales", and complex talks. Large scale being only > 64!
Yes, but even nvidia doesn't have unlimited gpus. Everything they hold for internal teams is a reduction in revenue and customers can have aggressive commitments.
