>I'm almost certain that I can give you components and instructions on how to build a nuclear bomb and the most likely thing that would happen is you'd die of radiation poisoning.

An LLM doesn't just provide instructions -- you can ask it for clarification as you're working. (E.g. "I'm on step 4 and I ran into problem X, what should I do?")

This isn't black and white. Perhaps given a Wikihow-type article on how to build a bomb, 10% succeed and 90% die of radiation poisoning. And with the help of an LLM, 20% succeed and 80% die of radiation poisoning. Thus the success rate has increased by a factor of 2.

We're very lucky that terrorists are not typically the brightest bulbs in the box. LLMs could change that.

I would say if you don't know what you're doing LLM make the chance of success 1% for nontrivial tasks. Especially for multi step processes where it just doubles down on hallucinations.
