In context, this quote is from Ohio Rep. Thaddeus Claggett, described in the article as sponsoring a bill to ban any legal personhood for AI, including limited corporate-style status. His remark that only humans should be responsible before the court is presented as his reason for opposing the proposal.

Against. The quote insists "the human responsible before the court" must remain the accountable party, and the article says the speaker sponsored a bill to ban any kind of AI legal personhood, even limited corporate-like status. That strongly implies opposition to granting AI agents legal personhood as non-human corporations.

The WWNO source URL contains an NPR transcript published on May 11, 2026 that identifies the speaker as “Thaddeus Claggett” and includes the quote verbatim: It is the human responsible before the court. That is it, and it still must remain that. That is the only thing that matters. Ohio House’s official biography confirms his full official name is Thaddeus J. Claggett, so the stored author, date, quote text, and source URL are consistent. ([wwno.org](https://www.wwno.org/npr-news/2026-05-11/several-states-considering-ban-on-legal-personhood-for-ai))
