Opus 5.5 will absolutely refuse to touch anti-cheat systems in video games, even when the end game isn't to cheat but to work on Linux compatibility or to bypass/spoof the checks to enable gameplay.

OpenAI and Anthropic models seem to be the most affected by these barriers, from my own experience.

Mistral, QWEN, and other models (read non-American) tend to have little to no restrictions. There were some tasks where I was actively trying to sabotage my own local network and Mistral had no issue helping. Anthropic and OpenAI refused outright or had to be "convinced" but would often hit further barricades along the way.

Sure but as easy it is to hack these devices as easy it is to harden it.

So this only works on products that was developed before ~now.

The solution is to not buy crap regardless if you can make it work or not.

You're under the assumption that the companies producing these give a shit about security. It'll probably increase a bit but I doubt it will be by much. If they have shipped devices that leave the doors wide open for almost any intrusion, they won't invest engineering/AI time and money to make these better than before and certainly won't review the code that the model spit out beyond a quick check if the promised base functionality still works.

I'm not. But no AI will produce anything that is as bad as the state of current products.

The Home Assistant hackers are some of the most persistent reverse engineers that I have seen. Almost as much as game crackers and cheat developers.
