Directly relevant: the source frames chatbot providers as responsible for their public-facing systems, and this quote specifically says Meta should be liable when its deployed chatbot gives harmful advice that would create liability if a human gave it. That is a concrete, narrower instance of the complete statement, so a determinable stance is clearly signaled.

The quote directly supports the statement: it says "Meta should be liable" if its deployed chatbot gives advice or recommendations that would create liability if a human gave them. That is a clear pro-liability position, even if framed through this specific Meta AI example.
