Yes, my argument is that with AI it is worth making the deployer liable. Clearly even the AI company partially agree they take responsibility, hence why they use safeguards. My aim is to make that responsibility no-fault so that the AI company is incentivised to actually try and safeguard things rather than try-to-try.
Also it makes the extent of the liability clear—if a human did it, would it be a crime? If so, you’re responsible. If not, not your problem what the user does with it.
Just a ping to note that I substantially edited my comment after you posted your reply, but before I read it. Your initial “yes” might not be to my final paragraph.
Also, I think the “isn’t” in your first paragraph is intended to be an “is”.
I don’t think it would require shutting down the most advanced AIs. If an employee at OpenAI hacked into hugging face, OpenAI might get a fine, but would almost certainly not be shut down. It would incentivise them to invest a bit more in security when training a modified version of their most advanced LLM specifically on cyber security exploits, which I don’t think is a bad thing...
( To be more explicit—my assumption is that AI companies will be occasionally found liable, and rapped on the hands, but only the most irresponsible will end up being forced to shut down over it)
