I see at least three updates one might make from the recent OAI/Hugging Face hacking incident:
1. “This happened sooner than I expected, and the story is more dramatic than I expected,” therefore I am more worried than before.
2. “This happened, and the inferior Chinese cyber-defense seems to have performed just fine,” therefore I am less worried than before.
3. “This happened, and as far as we can tell, absolutely no one was harmed,” therefore I am less worried than before.
Obviously the net impact, from those bare hypotheses, is indeterminate. And yet few people seem to be paying much heed to #2 or #3. Joshua Saxe from the cyber world has some relevant observations. And perhaps other updates are needed as well.
