NanoCo, the company behind security-focused AI agent platform NanoClaw, has closed an oversubscribed $12 million seed round led by Valley Capital Partners, with participation from Docker, Vercel, Monday.com, Slow Ventures, and angel investor Clem Delangue, CEO of Hugging Face. Brothers Gavriel and Lazer Cohen built NanoClaw as a sandboxed, container-based alternative to OpenClaw, designed to […]

Take a curated look at the best small language models currently available on Hugging Face, what each one is actually good at, the benchmark numbers that back those claims up, and the code to get started with each one.

Understanding modern AI architectures is harder than ever. Open any Hugging Face repository and you’ll usually find massive config files, layer definitions, parameter counts, and model cards that explain what the model does but rarely help you understand how it is structured internally. That becomes a problem as most developers end up mentally reconstructing architectures […] The post How to Visualize Any AI Model Architecture Instantly in Hugging Face appeared first on Analytics Vidhya.

A lookalike repository impersonating OpenAI's Privacy Filter model racked up 244,000 downloads in under 18 hours before Hugging Face pulled it.

A malicious Hugging Face repository that posed as an OpenAI release delivered infostealer malware to Windows machines and recorded about 244,000 downloads before removal, according to research from AI security firm HiddenLayer. The number of downloads may have been artificially inflated by the attackers to make the model seem more popular, so the extent of […] The post Hugging Face hosted malicious software masquerading as OpenAI release appeared first on AI News.

A malicious Hugging Face repository posing as an OpenAI release delivered infostealer malware to Windows systems and logged 244,000 downloads before being removed, raising fresh concerns about how enterprises source and validate AI models from public repositories. The repository, named Open-OSS/privacy-filter, impersonated OpenAI’s legitimate Privacy Filter release, copied its model card almost word-for-word, and included a malicious loader.py file that fetched and executed credential-stealing malware on Windows hosts, AI security firm HiddenLayer said in a research advisory. “The repository reached the #1 trending position on Hugging Face with approximately 244K downloads and 667 likes in under 18 hours, numbers that were almost certainly artificially inflated to make the repository appear legitimate,” the advisory added. The incident highlights growing concerns that public AI model registries are emerging as a new software supply-chain risk for enterprises, particularly as developers
