alt Hacker NewsThe problem is that the people telling us about these things are the same people that benefit from their model (and AI generally) being used, getting publicity, etc.
I think we desperately need some independent group to evaluate claims like this or the world-ending Mythos cybersecurity risk and tell us what’s going on.

We did hear about this incident from a third party this time, from HuggingFace. What claim are you doubting?

OpenAI already has loads of publicity. At this point, they don't need more brand recognition. This incident just has the effect of tarnishing their brand.
OpenAI leadership has been lobbying against regulation of AI systems. That doesn't comport with instigating incidents like this one, which give ammo to the heavy-regulation advocates.
