They used GLM to parse logs after the incident. There was no sci-fi AI vs AI battle.

Yes, to parse logs afterwards and understand, it wasn't active defence from what I've heard? Definitely embarrassing for the closed vendors though (they've since added hugging face as a trusted vendor)

One of their learnings from the incident was that they should have a local (i.e. not hosted), open, and capable model on standby that can respond to future incidents swiftly.
