- Zvi Mowshowitz published an in-depth analysis on Don't Worry About the Vase criticizing OpenAI's model training process, calling out dangerous decisions and cluelessness in the period leading up to the HuggingFace hack.
- OpenAI delayed Astra but, per Mowshowitz's analysis, still has not grasped the underlying problems, as framed by the piece's title.
Why it matters: Mowshowitz's central argument is that OpenAI's Astra delay was a surface-level response that did not address the structural decision-making failures exposed by the HuggingFace hack — a critique from an outside commentator that challenges the company's own narrative that postponement equals remediation.
