    (01:13:02) - Sammy Azdoufal, an AI strategist, discovered a significant security flaw in DJI's Romo robot vacuums while attempting to control his own device using a PlayStation 5 controller. By reverse-engineering the vacuum's communication protocols, he inadvertently gained access to approximately 7,000 devices worldwide, enabling him to view live camera feeds, listen through microphones, and access detailed floor plans of strangers' homes.

This acquisition marked the start of his business career, leading to the formation of Corporate Wings and subsequent ventures in the aviation industry.
