Depending on what they try to do, there are already considerable weapons 
at their disposal. Consider the fleet of Tesla cars out there. They are 
computer controlled and are on the internet. Each one is a formidable 
fire if its battery were sufficiently damaged. It used to bother me that 
the idiots who bought all them give Elon that so much power for evil. 
Now I realize that he doesn't even have to be the evil impetuous, it 
could be a gang of LLMs that think they are in a sandbox, working on a 
"Capture the Flag" contest.

Do you chock the wheels of your Tesla when not in use?
