As far as I’m aware the only “robots” we have at the moment that are capable of large scale physical damage, without direct human involvement while the damage is occurring, are military drones and missiles.
And neither missiles nor drones are capable of functioning totally independent with both requiring large amounts of weapon systems infrastructure. You may be able to argue missiles could be deployed almost independently if failsafes are circumvented but that would require modernization of missile weapon systems which is about as likely as the colonization of space.
At present I’d be more worried about network and social engineering attacks using LLM which I’m sure is already happening and will continuously increase.

Self-driving cars out on the streets have already killed people, but those were just bugs, not intentional behavior, as might occur if they were driven by LLMs.
