Yeah, obviously they're legally liable. All the "machines don't have a soul" stuff in there doesn't really matter for that though.
Someone says "won't you rid me of the meddlesome priest" they're still responsible. Someone give their employees an unsafe working environment and they get maimed, they're still responsible. Even if these AI's had whatever qualia is an a rich inner life it wouldn't effect the liability at all. Saying "AI's don't have souls therefore openAI is responsible for this hacking" is kind of nonsense. It literally doesn't matter.
