Which can sometimes work incredibly well when working in conjunction with another model. It's unbelievable how incredible gpt-6.1-sol even on medium reasoning is at reviewing Opus 5.5's work it will find incredibly weird, but legitimate, edge cases, yet if you actually use it as the main model, it just misses forest for trees so much. They are more like an organ which can do an incredible job at a specialized task that the brain cannot handle efficiently but the second you try to do brain's work with time, it all comes crashing down.
I hope they are able to recover with future models. If you could could somehow combine how Opus approaches a task with the autistic brilliance of Astra/6.1, you would have an incredible model far exceeding today's models.
But you people can't argue with that reality because it doesn't fit the narrative. The one where the only reason Sam Altman is not carted off into a jail is because of corruption.
The reason why nobody is doing much, is because models did not do much damage. Hugging Face probably got some free compute from OAI for their trouble, anybody else who was affected is free to sue, but my guess is OAI would be more than willing to quietly settle with them out of court than to have it drag through media any further. And they probably already have.
And anybody who is not totally brainbroken by anti-AI narratives understands the awkwardness of the situation and why going overboard would not be helpful. If you instead of a rabid dog brought a pet turtle to a park and it somehow started running around very fast and trashing the place a little bit, afterwards the cops would be scratching their heads, give you a ticket for the damages and tell you that you can't expect a turtle to be slow forever. These things, a handful of months ago couldn't make more than a few commands without making a serious mistake and being unable to continue, it's not unreasonable to think simply underestimated their capabilities.
I think it's more than reasonable to demand more investigation into the matter, if qualified employees at the company thought the safeguards in place based on the metrics they are seeing are sufficient, and if someone didn't and knowingly made a decision to make the safeguards weaker than they should have been, then they should be punished. But skipping that part entirely, while simultaneously dismissing all calls for regulations as "regulatory capture", smells like pure naked opportunism.
