Now we have a timeline of the OpenAI accidental attack against Hugging Face

I haven’t found time to watch the OpenAI presentation yet, but this timeline is a nice quick summary.

An interesting look at what Anthropic sees as the future of AI research, and how their internal use of Claude has changed over the last year Claude-written code was somewhat worse than human-written code at Anthropic in late 2025, is roughly at parity today, and we expect it to be strictly better within the year. but also Work (and life) ran on a gift economy of small favors between humans. ‘Can you help me get this script running?’ […] each one created a little debt, a little mutual aw...

Significant raise of reports [LWN.net]

On the kernel security list we’ve seen a huge bump of reports. We were between 2 and 3 per week maybe two years ago, then reached probably 10 a week over the last year with the only difference being only AI slop, and now since the beginning of the year we’re around 5-10 per day depending on the days (fridays and tuesdays seem the worst). Now most of these reports are correct, to the point that we had to bring in more maintainers to help us.
