We might already have technical time bombs on our planets. Things like nuclear weapons which operators must turn key after a certain time can cause a dangerous situation. The idea of this kind of nuclear weapon is that turning the key tells the system that the operator is alive. And if that key will not turn the system might think that the operators are dead. And then it will start an attack against suspected enemies.
Another problem is the robot submarines that mission is to hide under the sea. Those systems might program that if the communication signal between that robot submarine and its base cuts the submarine will start to attack the "enemies".
The technical time bomb can be made on purpose or accidentally. In some visions, there is some kind of leak in the nuclear waste storage. And then suddenly that leak can cause a nuclear reaction. Technical time bombs are the things that can cause local or global damage.
When AI is turned on more common in military systems there developed computer viruses called "logic bombs". When certain parameters are filled the logic bomb will destroy things like databases of the target computers. That kind of situation can cause danger if it happens in vital and mission-critical systems.
