Mere intelligence does not generate an atomic bomb. Einstein signed the letter to the president, and Oppenheimer was the man helming the project, but the actual construction of the atomic bomb required massive amounts of labor and resource gathering that was not under Einstein nor Oppenheimer's jurisdiction. The physical ability of hypothetical AGIs or LLMs to command such resources is rather low.
