alt Hacker NewsThe part I find the strangest in that whole affair is the way OpenAI is framing a felony (their systems accessed other company servers and exfiltrated private data, for multiple days, by exploiting vulnerabilities) as a successful partnership with jfrog and huggingface.
Aren’t we now in a situation where a large AI vendor can engineer a similar situation against another corporation, then if caught committing a crime, they come up with the same “wow, look at what the agent did, thanks to our crazy rebellious AI the world is now safer”?

So OpenAI and their models are like Rod Hull and Emu?
The law doesn’t apply to billion dollar corporations.
They also did felony copyright infringement many times over. Seems we're all rediscovering the iron law of politics: the only rule is that the most powerful people make the rules.
I don’t see how it can’t be both. Yes, it is a felony, unarguably, but it’s also a first of its kind and I’ll be very interested in who law enforcement prosecutes and what the judiciary says about this. Almost everything is a precedent here except ‘somebody got hacked’.
