FTC chair says AI developers should be liable for agents' conduct

Original: FTC chair suggests AI developers should be liable for conduct of agents

The chair of the US Federal Trade Commission argued that companies developing AI agents should be held legally responsible for what those systems do, pushing back against the idea that AI agents should be treated as independent actors.
