Hmmmm script kiddies can do a lot of damage tho. And if the model is on that level, they can as well. Plus, unlike script kiddies, the robot never tires, gets distracted, or bored, or hungry, making it capable of utilising that destructive power at way higher speeds.
Script kiddies never did their shenanigans manually. And they were always perfectly capable of running their scripts in a while loop. A “robot” that you’re describing is the same script in a loop, running on the same machine, but instead of running their scripts from a static file, it now runs it from the output of an LLM, and even though sometimes it yields some unexpected results, on average it’s nothing new.
The difference is, a script that tries known exploits against a list of IP addresses and ports costs nothing. Same, but put through an LLM costs money, for worse “results”.
I feel like you underestimate both script kiddies and the bots. I could do a lot worse when i was 13 than what youre describing, and ive seen bots do similar harm.

Not really, I agree that they both bring harm, my point is that LLM bots aren’t that much more dangerous, if any.
