> maybe don’t provide dangerous tools to an unpredictable LLM.

Sure. It's a good idea.

People were saying "Don't connect the AI to the internet" and "Keep the AI in a box, simple" and "We don't believe Eliezer Yudkowsky when he says he roleplayed as an AI and convinced people to let him out of the box" for, what, a decade?

Unfortunately, people keep giving dangerous tools to LLMs they're unable to predict.

We should do something about that.

Unfortunately, one of the people doing this is the commander-in-chief of the US armed forces, while another is the world's first (paper) trillionaire. I'm a little despondent about the chances of, to riff on a previous campaign chant, "lock 'em up", but if you can pull this off, go for it.
