Bloomberg Tech · Special Edition: Hugging Face CEO Clement Delangue Talks OpenAI Hack · 3 Aug 2026 podcast

If you fall asleep at the wheel of your self-driving car, then you're responsible if you're hitting another car.

In a similar way, we need to make sure that the legal framework for autonomous agents

is clear and defined and useful for the field and the American society.

Well, I think it was related.

I mean, this cyber attack showed that you can create risks with models behind closed doors that are unreleased.

So just working on preventing the models to be released is not the solution.

And that, you know, defenders need open models because, you know, to defend yourself against your cyber attack, you need to run it on your own infrastructure because it's usually on your private data.

And you need the control that open models gives you that sometimes...

proprietary APIs don't give you because of guardrails, because of limitations, because of also how much it costs, right?

So I think that was a perfect example and perfect validation for this notion of the world's small companies, startups, researchers, but also large companies needing open models wherever they come from.

Yeah, I mean, there are a lot of different topics in AI, and I think the role of a lot of people is to set the priorities.

And I think what this letter was outlining, too, is that...

Probably one of the biggest risks in AI is concentration of power.

It's concentration of powers, capabilities, wealth in a few organizations when everyone else would be lagging behind and be left out in a way.

And open models are kind of like a counterforce to that.

They empower small companies, startups, organizations that are not necessarily frontier AI labs to build AI themselves, to own their intelligence, as some people said.

And I think that's one topic that policymakers need to focus on a little bit more than they've been focusing on so far.

So hopefully this letter kind of puts the topic more prominently on their desk.

I don't agree at all with that.

We don't want any company in the US running cyber attacks against other companies.
