Just slow isnt enough. They need to cut off internet access for the AI agents that hacked hugging face. Shut down the rogue AI agents and remove the hacking abilities. Police should also be investigating OpenAI for cyber crimes. How are they not facing lawsuits and legal actions after such a huge hacking scandal?
