Do you by chance have a vested interest in attesting this? A disclaimer might be appropriate if so.

Yes you’re right thanks, I should have disclaimed earlier, but AK is a member of the team I lead at Hugging Face.
You should be ashamed of yourself and apologize. What's more likely? There's paid shills lying that he provides non-negative value, or you're missing something when asserting for every ML PhD on earth, they must think his extremely popular work has negative value?
Apparently my innuendo has not been taken well, so I'll clarify in more straightforward terms: @abidlabs is the employer of the individual running the aforementioned twitter account.
If this is true then not disclosing that is extremely unethical of @abidlabs, damn near intellectual malfeasance, and reflects very poorly on the rest of their work.
except the fact that the company name is in the handle
That's not how ethical disclosure works.
