	The authors discuss Large Language Models in the context of the security risks associated with their functions and availability. Even though their applications seem to be similar to search engines and internet access, the true danger posed by Large Language Models lies in basic analytical and programming skills they provide to any criminal or terrorist. They assert that accessible Large Language Models not only diminish financial barriers to various criminal activities but also lower the expertise and commitment required by individuals or small groups to commit crimes, and acts of terror in particular. On the other hand, however, law enforcement agencies can also harness the capabilities of these models to stay ahead of emerging threats.
