    This is embarrassing. These companies need to stop these obviously coordinated stunts.

      The embarrassing part is that it might be working.

      I was at my in laws… these people have a landline they can’t imagine getting rid of, an emergency only cell flip phone, don’t own a microwave…

      And they’re asking me if I heard about “OpenAI’s rouge agents hacking huggingface”.

      This is not a joke. They said huggingface. I was surrounded by four walls in which I never would have bet someone else’s money that I’d ever hear the two words put together in that order.

      It’s a formalized propaganda campaign. Watch, it’s about to split on hard political lines too, Obama is out there with a suspiciously “for the children” AI regulation push for midterms.
