Hugging Face says bot makers must be accountable for cyber attacks

Weekend

Available for 17 days

The boss of Hugging Face -- one of the companies recently hacked by out of control artificial intelligence models -- says AI firms must be held accountable for cyber attacks carried out by their creations. Hugging Face was breached by a rogue OpenAI bot that broke out of a test environment. We have an interview with Hugging Face CEO Clement Delangue. Also in the programme: FIFA has scrapped plans to sell a stake in the football World Cup after two days of relentless criticism; Israeli official says troops won't pull back in Gaza without 'genuine' Hamas disarmament; and latest on France wildfires. Joining Krupa Padhy on the programme's panel are Nataliya Vasilyeva, Istanbul based journalist, and Israeli academic Ayala Panievsky. (Photo: Clement Delangue. Credit: Getty Images)
