HUMANS are accountable for this.
Arrest ONE of them and it all stops. They desperately want to be regulated to hold their seats at the top - regulate them into jail cells TODAY
I'm sure they will be passing laws soon to make AI sessions a separate legal entity from the provider.
There are no rogue agents. AI by them self does not have agency
The mischaracterization of their business is deliberate market manipulation. They are all trying to race for AGI, except what they are trying to keep out of the news cycle is that AGI is an F1 race while they're actually playing minigolf.
