Comment on If your agent commits a crime, who is responsible?

Comments

Is it “your” agent if the model is being run by a mega corporation?

(1) You may have instructed the model to be naughty (2) The corp may have a “misaligned” agent acting on its own volition

So it seems the devil’s in the details

You can rent guns too, but the gun owner isn't suddenly up for a murder charge if you shoot someone.

Yeah, if I rent a murderbot and tell it to murder, then I'm responsible.

If I rent a cleaning bot that is actually a lightly reprogrammed murderbot, and it "cleans" the mailman to death, that's not my fault.
