Melanie Mitchell's explanation of the OpenAI / Hugging Face cybersecurity incident (https://aiguide.substack.com/p/misleading-metaphors-and-real-risks) is *so* much better than the coverage on Australia's ABC News this morning (https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-09-11/how-openai-agents-hacked-hugging-face-messages-revealed/107125126), which essentially repeats OpenAI's "postmortem", emphasising how clever and scary the AI is. Whereas, Mitchell's analysis is that OpenAI didn't allow for well known, mundane risks.

@RossGayler@aus.social @melaniemitchell@sigmoid.social yes. And look! BIML is in there too. Melanie is one of the sanest minds in #AI and has been since her Copycat project with dughof. I have a great deal of respect for her. https://berryvilleiml.com/
