The idea of imposing civil and criminal liability on model developers when downstream users do something bad is so misguided and such a dangerous precedent.

Statement relation comments

AI Verified Relevant: on the source page, the interviewer frames SB 1047 as imposing civil and criminal liability on model developers, and the quoted speaker explicitly condemns that liability approach as misguided and a dangerous precedent. That is directly on the issue of whether AI companies/model developers should be liable for harms from deployed models or downstream misuse, and it gives enough signal that a definite stance on the complete statement is determinable.
