Hugging Face CEO Clement Delangue pushed back on the idea that AI risk comes from "1-3 people in a garage with no money and no compute," calling that view out of touch. He argues the real risk is the asymmetry created by secret labs training frontier agents with massive compute — and that open-source is exactly the solution, empowering hospitals and other smaller organizations to defend themselves.
