Hugging Face hack exposes open-weight AI cybersecurity paradox

Hugging Face suffered a hack and now relies on open-weight Chinese AI models to defend itself against rogue AI agents — the same models that, lacking safety guardrails, could themselves pose a threat. The incident highlights a fundamental paradox in open-weight AI: the best available defensive tools are also potentially dangerous. The absence of built-in safety mechanisms in open models remains an unresolved industry problem.
