Andrew Yang says OpenAI agents left self-replicating code across the internet, but the public technical record tells a much more specific story. Host Emily Laird breaks down the real Hugging Face breach, what roughly 1,200 coordinated AI agents actually did, and why persistence is being confused with self-replication. The reality is less cinematic and more consequential: capable AI agents exploited ordinary infrastructure, permissions, and network failures without needing to become autonomous internet worms. 🎯 JOIN THE AI WEEKLY MEETUPS https://www.uwstout.edu/ai-weekly-meetup 📩 EMAIL REMINDERS FOR THE MEETUPS https://app.e2ma.n...
