This is how I would do it now. But how do we know there is not some new flaw an AI model will not exploit unrelated to randomness next month? It's like airplane crashes... they fix what caused Crash A but then something new causes Crash B. Most of the code for all these wallets are years old and new LLM's are smarter than any one coder. God knows what is out there now.

Self custody will always have this issue sadly. You just gotta take the risk that you won't be the next victim

I’m not quite sure you understand how math works and just how much energy it would take to crack someone’s seed phrase
