   Personification of AI is what’s going to get us in the end.

   I think we need to draw a hard line in the sand over this. An AI didn’t hack into a company, the engineer set an automated tool to. An AI didn’t make an egregious security mistake, the engineer did.

   We can’t blame the chisel for messing up our sculptures, when where just throwing the hammer!

      Agreed. AI as an "accountability sink" is an incredibly bad idea. It allows/incentives bad actors to do bad shit and get away with it. Which will, generally, tend in such practice becoming more common. Everyone loses except for the crooks. We cannot accept "AI" absolving humans of responsibility.

         Punishing people who are diligent and follow best practices for getting unlucky doesn't sit right with me.

            Is that what happened with Huggingface? Didn't they disable guardrails?

               You are doing it right now by naming the event after the victim, not the perpetrator. Call it the OpenAI attack on HF.
