Not hacked by AI at all.

According to reporting, he downloaded an AI tool that happened to include malware. The malware stole information from his machine including his keystrokes as he typed his 1Password login and password. Once they had the 1Password login information they had all his other logins and passwords too.

Two quick takeaways: Be careful about what software you download and make use of 2FA.
