AI can write a wedding toast or summarize a paper, but what happens if it’s asked to build a bomb?

During the past year, large language models (LLMs) have become incredibly adept at generating synthesizing information and producing humanlike outputs. LLMs are likened to digital librarians, as they have been trained on vast datasets sourced directly from the internet and can therefore generate or summarize text on nearly any topic. As a result, these LLMs have become ubiquitous in such fields as copywriting, software engineering, and entertainment.
