I don't know what kind of hardware store sells depleted uranium, but I'm not sure that the reason we aren't seeing these sorts of terrorist attacks is that the terrorists don't have a capable manifesto-writer at hand.

I don't know, if the worst thing AGI can do is give bad people accurate, competent information, maybe it's not all that dangerous, you know?

Depleted uranium is actually the less radiative byproduct after using a centrifuge to skim the U-235 isotope. It’s 50% denser than lead and used on tanks.

Dirty bombs are more likely the ultra radioactive by products of fission. They might not kill much but the radionucleotide spread can render a city center uninhabitable for centuries!

See, and we didn't even need an LLM to tell us this!
