Hugging Face security.txt
I truly think every major AI lab is purposefully making fear-mongering headlines to get regulations that hurt open-source models
NVIDIA's $12,930,300,000.00 acquisition of Hugging Face contains an easter egg. The first 6 numbers of the acquisition price represent the decimal conversion of Unicode character U+1F917. The 🤗 emoji.
Anthropic just dropped the greatest advertisement for GLM ever.
The benchmarks the big labs don't want you to see
Don’t buy a $9K RTX 5090.... instead.

Qwen-Image-2.1 released!
