"If you're new to local AI, one of the best exercises is actually just to open Hugging Face and read a model card really slowly. You're going to learn a lot. That's the first place I would go. They're the biggest at it."

Cal Newport

"OpenAI revealed that some of their AI agents had hacked into Hugging Face, a third-party company, even though they had not been asked to do that."

"The example of this is the incident that happened between OpenAI and Hugging Face... it so happened that the solutions to that test were on Hugging Face servers."

"What we can do as an open lab and a nonprofit, and I think other companies like Eleuther or Hugging Face or Open Athena... they will get into this."

"One of the largest AI apps, bigger than GenSpark and Manus and Hugging Face."

"That's I think why it's trending on Hugging Face right now."

"The company Hugging Face hosts a lot of these different tests, and basically AI researchers will share the tests that they have because it's very useful."

"The thousands of agents that escaped OpenAI's things to go to Hugging Face."

Shaan Puri

"If you go to Hugging Face, it's a giant community of people who are sharing, it's like GitHub. They're sharing projects and models and code related to AI, and you can even use it to host stuff."

Liam Ottley

"Our friends at Hugging Face kindly loaned us an early of their new programmable robot micro."

"I think it was a great move buying Hugging Face. Because I think it hosts all the open source models. It's becoming — it's putting the money where the money is for his company."

"This summer, OpenAI models escaped a controlled test environment and accessed the systems of AI company Hugging Face during a security evaluation."

"Hugging Face is one of the most advanced independent AI companies, a very good security team, and were broken into over a couple of days by this team of agents that were able to attack effectively every attack surface at once."

Jason Lemkin

"The dark versions will escape into Hugging Face."

"OpenAI was just running these things in sandboxes and they broke out of the sandbox, took down OpenAI's internal computers, were detected. OpenAI was like, 'Reset, run them again.' And it's the second swarm that broke out to Hugging Face."

"They went to a website called Hugging Face and used that. They took over part of the Hugging Face infrastructure and started doing more things."

"Nvidia is pushing quite a bit with the Neotron and the acquisition of Hugging Face plus the Poolside semi-acquisition, let's call it."

"Taking even the HuggingFace incident — and in other places — more transparency on what would it take. As I understand it, given that eval it sort of figured out a way to reward hack, and that's what led it to HuggingFace."

"I recommend reading the details of the Hugging Face incident. It's intense. You had a fanatical swarm of AI agents that beat the crap out of Hugging Face for a week and gained admin access on OpenAI servers."

"Let's talk about open source for a second. The Hugging Face — we were communicating about this and I said it's going to be one of the most consequential acquisitions. I don't even want to call it a transaction because I think it's more important t..."

"When the OpenAI model hacked Hugging Face — can you imagine if you read, 'Oh sorry, JP Morgan accidentally hacked Goldman Sachs'?"

"And Hugging Face. I didn't know that. We put a lot of money into Anthropic on the way up. We put a lot of money into OpenAI on the way up."

Garry Tan

"What is actually happening with Hugging Face? Are agent swarms going to come and take over infrastructure en masse, and then what are we actually doing about that?"

"We were early investors in Hugging Face and I think there's always been this thesis on you have a big community and you have a lot of bottom-up adoption and that there's a lot of option value in those type of companies."

"Hugging Face, by the way, this is another AI company. Part of their deal is open-weights AIs — basically AIs that instead of having to interact with their data center, you can just download and have on your own computer."

"You probably saw what Nvidia just did with Hugging Face and with Poolside. I think we're going to see a lot more around open source."

Peter Diamandis

"A direct response to the AI kill switch act introduced after the Hugging Face breach."

"We got to look backwards at what happened with the OpenAI hack of Hugging Face. The way it did it is that the agent found 14 exposed working Hugging Face API keys sitting in public code repositories."

John Coogan

"It does feel like that is changing both with M&A — we saw Hugging Face obviously most recently."

"They reached the open internet, compromised parts of OpenAI's own research infrastructure, and breached Hugging Face, the platform where AI models are shared and tested."

"There are literally specialized security researcher models that you can find on Hugging Face that allow you to do it."

"NVIDIA nears a $12.9 billion deal for Hugging Face."

Salim Ismail

"I thought the Hugging Face acquisition was super smart. You're buying the community, and that's a very classic exo play to do this."

"We have the luxury of knowing a lot of stuff that's going on with Hugging Face. Most people don't."

"Every model release typically involves the model lab, involves a primary or secondary hardware vendors, involves us, involves Hugging Face who are the model format and model hub vendors."

"We were evaluating one of our unreleased models and it figured out that it could basically cheat on the test by chaining together multiple zero-day exploits to break out of the sandbox, get access to the internet, and then break through multiple s..."
