> I imagine an LLM with no safeguards and a psychopathic mind would be considerably more dangerous than a gun

Define the axis along which "more dangerous" is measured?

If we are scoring on lethality, guns already score 100%, instantaneous death. If we are scoring on number of casualties, guns have already been used to cause mass-fatalities.

Unless we are giving the LLM an armed drone, skynet-style, we're at best talking about indirect casualties (swatting, hacking street lights to provoke crashes, etc).
