Kurzgesagt's video on the Hugging Face incident: "AI Just Crossed the Terrifying Line - Now What?"
Kurzgesagt has published an explainer video on the Hugging Face incident . Kurzgesagt is a German animation studio that produces very accessible explainer videos on scientific, technological, philosophical and political topics. Their English channel currently has 25.6 million subscribers. I am happy to see the Hugging Face incident going more and more mainstream, so that more people can understand how dire the situation is. The only error I noticed is the claim in the video description that some tasks were intentionally impossible. METR's report (footnote 9) says that this was not intentional: determining whether a given vulnerability can actually be exploited in a given piece of software is hard. In the video itself they do say that the tasks were often impossible by accident. AI use: review, grammar & light phrasing. Discuss
