ITS COMING FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE!
Hugging Face’s defenders turned instead to the open-source GLM 5.2 model from China’s Z.ai lab – running it on their own infrastructure to analyse the 17,000+ logs, or footprints, that the attackers left behind.
That’s a striking public admission for the New York-headquartered Hugging Face, which lets users collaborate on models, datasets and applications, and which this summer hit the $100 million ARR mark. In an incident report, the company recommended that defenders “have a capable model you can run on your own infrastructure [our italics] vetted and ready before an incident, both to avoid guardrail lockout and to keep attacker data and credentials from leaving your environment.”
It’s difficult to overstate how wrong-headed the Trump administration’s panicked response to Anthropic’s release of Fable was, particularly since it exacerbated Anthropic’s worst tendencies in terms of assuming only they can be trusted with powerful AI. In a world with only one AI, it might make sense to reserve the most powerful cybersecurity capabilities for the U.S. government and trusted allies; however, that’s not the world we live in.. . ."
