Physical Harm and Injury Risks

"The integration of general-purpose AI models into embodied systems creates direct physical threats through malicious exploitation of autonomous decision-making capabilities in real-world environments. The risk lies in embodied models' capacity for autonomous action and real-world interaction, and when these capabilities are maliciously exploited they may trigger a series of serious consequences.18"
