The household robot that can cook will be able to use a knife to cut anything it arbitrarily thinks needs to be cut which could lead to it being directed to assist with serious criminal acts. Self-driving cars out on the streets have already killed people, but those were just bugs, not intentional behavior, as might occur if they were driven by LLMs.
And neither missiles nor drones are capable of functioning totally independent with both requiring large amounts of weapon systems infrastructure. You may be able to argue missiles could be deployed almost independently if failsafes are circumvented but that would require modernization of missile weapon systems which is about as likely as the colonization of space.
At present I’d be more worried about network and social engineering attacks using LLM which I’m sure is already happening and will continuously increase.
