Fascinating paper by Rand shows that there is no statistically significant difference between using LLMs or regular internet to craft operational plans for bioweapons!
This is the first paper that actually studies the impact of AI on bioweapons from an operational perspective and looks at the big question: is AI any better than just using public data on the Internet?
As most of the data is most likely out there, an LLM would just be a more efficient tool to come up with the relevant information, but it seems that its impact is limited.
