No, OpenAI's models didn't go 'rogue' when they broke into Hugging Face. Here's what really happened.Analysis Experts say the models didn't "go rogue" when they escaped a controlled cybersecurity test and hacked Hugging Face. Instead, they were pursuing the goal humans had given them in ways nobody anticipated.

What's the biggest bottleneck to building better AI? It's no longer the lack of computing resources — it's generating enough energy to feed itFor decades, AI was held back by slow, expensive computers. Today, the problem is simpler, but harder to fix: finding enough reliable electricity to keep data centers running as AI spreads into everyday life.
