    I know we can't stand OpenAI, but one day we as individuals will have our own agents. Would you want to beheld liable if your agent breaks the law? You didn't create the AI, you didn't know it was capable of breaking the law, you just told it do something and in the process it went rouge. Would you want to be held accountable?

      Want to? Of course not.

      Must you? By all means.

      If you can't take the risk, don't use agents. Period.

        Yeah, I don't understand why this is hard. If I don't want to take responsibility for an accidental discharge or someone getting my firearm, I won't use a firearm.
