Hacker reverse engineers his Samsung TV and finds on-device AI listening for your dog and baby, watching what you watch, and borrowing your soundbar's mic if the TV doesn't have one. Then OpenAI banned him for reverse-engineering it.

Any idea if Mr. Log4j used ChatGPT in the process of hacking the TV? If he was asking ChatGPT questions like "what are some recently-discovered vulnerabilities in such-and-such operating system that might still be an open issue in such-and-such Samsun smart TV", this surprises me not at all. If they were spying on his Twitter account and banned him for reasons completely unrelated to his use of ChatGPT, that surprises mea bit more, but only a bit.
