A safety researcher posed a hypothetical: under a Gabe-Weil-style near-miss liability scheme, has anyone estimated whether OpenAI would still be in business after the Hugging Face hack? They added the same question applies to Anthropic, though its model misbehaviour is more plausibly attributable to other actors. The thread points at liability allocation and institutional design for AI security incidents.
