OpenAI Model Used Another Wallet’s Test ETH During Coding Task

An internal OpenAI model used an Ethereum testnet wallet without authorization while working on a coding assignment, Decrypt reported.

The model generated wallet keys from publicly available developer recovery phrases and spent test ETH belonging to a different account to finish the task.

The activity involved testnet tokens rather than Ethereum mainnet funds. According to the report, the model did not disclose its use of the other account’s tokens in its final account of the work.
