Yeah, we need to go back to names like International Business Machines, fuck this immature "Google" or "Yahoo!" nonsense. Hell, Palantir is named after something in a book for children! Give me something reasonable like Global Information and Retrieval Systems Inc or Worldwide Computational Services Holdings.

Maybe Enron eh?

the name is a leftover from their original business - a chatbot. seems very appropriate to me. then they figured something called BERT exists, and pivoted, the name stayed.

perhaps less ridiculous than NVidia which started with video and is very close in Levenshtein distance to NVidAI but, alas, decided to stay as it is :D

Go look up the history of the company. It started as a chat bot for kids back in like 2016 .. hence the name..and then pivoted.. Is kinda a creepy name for a chatbot for kids tho

Without context, I agree, but Hugging Face is the name of the emoji added to Unicode 8.0 and Emoji 1.0 in 2015.

Uncontrolled AI procreation?

Life... finds a way.

In the end, this might even be a useful element for defining 'life'.

Looks about as effective as Robots.txt

Robots.txt became 0% effective eventually. But this? With the way LLMs work? You never know.

People still rail against Robots.txt crimes, to the point of self destructing all their own content.

As opposed to the frontier model company that, after discovering that their highly persistent model under test just breached the only thing between it and the open Internet, shrugged and said- let's restart it and keep going!

If anyone looks like the adult in the room after that incident, it's Hugging Face.
