If you train and instruct a circus tiger to entertain an audience but not attack the audience, but the tiger attacks the audience anyway, are you liable?

I don't think I said anything about liability? I absolutely think OpenAI should be held liable for the attack; but I don't think they intended the attack or directed the agents to perform the attack.

I’d hope so, if the tiger trainer has no incentive to do their training job correctly people should stop attending circus…

Yes? Do you think otherwise?

No, of course not. That's an innovative revolutionary tiger that might soon be able to devour not just the audience but all of humanity! You don't want China to have better circus tigers, do you?
