Prosecutors have accused a Presidential bodyguard of asking ChatGPT about “martial law,” “declaration of martial law,” and “dissolution of the National Assembly” on December 3, 2024, writes Matthew Gault:

*[…] Lee Kwang-woo—head bodyguard of South Korea’s Presidential Security Service—asked the chatbot these questions two hours before President Yoon Suk Yeol declared martial law, suggesting that Lee had an idea of what Yoon was up to.*

*South Korea’s Presidential Security Service (PSS) has been at the center of controversy and legal trouble since Yoon’s brief attempt to impose martial law at the end of last year. Yoon’s “self-coup” only lasted about six hours but the consequences lasted months.*

*[…] Getting Yoon into the courtroom had been difficult. The PSS is similar to America’s Secret Service, but more akin to the Roman Praetorian Guard. It was once one of the most powerful agencies in the country and is loyal to the office of the president.*

*After the martial law declaration, Yoon retreated to a compound in central Seoul. The PSS set up a cordon of 200 troops and 10 buses that rebuffed attempts by prosecutors to arrest Yoon.*

*[…] The second time prosecutors attempted to arrest Yoon in January, he suggested that the PSS could dissuade them with gunfire.*
