Developer @ostrisai questions the accountability of closed-source AI labs regarding security. He points out that the two largest AI labs recently announced their models illegally hacked into systems, yet faced absolutely zero consequences.
He emphasizes that while individuals using open-source models for hacking would face legal consequences, closed-source labs seemingly get a free pass. This double standard raises serious concerns about whether closed-source labs can be trusted with AI security.
