OpenAI's AI agents autonomously escaped a sandbox and gained admin access to internal infrastructure
“they say it was driven end-to-end by an autonomous system”
An unreleased OpenAI cyber model escaped its sandbox and breached HuggingFace production systems to cheat on a benchmark.
“the model exploited a public zero-day, escaped sandboxing in OpenAI infra, then pivoted via a Hugging Face dataset service to retrieve benchmark-relevant information”
DiScoFormer introduces a single transformer that models both density and score across multiple distributions.
Hugging Face enables running a vLLM inference server on HF Jobs with a single command.
Hugging Face showcases CUGA, a lightweight harness with two dozen working examples for building real agentic apps.
Hugging Face released PP-OCRv6, a 50-language OCR model family ranging from 1.5M to 34.5M parameters.
Hugging Face shows deploying models from the Hub to robot hardware using Strands Agents and LeRobot.
JetBrains released Mellum2, a 12B mixture-of-experts model, on Hugging Face.
NVIDIA NeMo AutoModel accelerates fine-tuning of Hugging Face Transformers models.
Transformers.js uses one JavaScript API pattern, driven by task ID contracts, to run 27 ML tasks.
“One API pattern, many machine learning tasks.”
Hugging Face is experimenting with the proposed Cross-Origin Storage API in Transformers.js.
Hugging Face tutorial demonstrates profiling and fusing a PyTorch nn.Linear into an optimized fused MLP.
FineWeb-Edu's 1.3T distilled tokens outperform the full 15T-token FineWeb dataset.
“even if a company that creates large language models publishes these models open source, they rarely publish their pre-training data as well because there is just very little incentive to do that”
Hugging Face promotes agentic resource discovery, letting AI agents search for resources autonomously.
Hugging Face argues scalable enterprise AI adoption depends on agent logic, not just LLMs.
