Err, no. If someone is at fault, it is definitely the company (OpenAI) not the employee in this case.

Just think, isn't the whole point of a company, of incorporating, is that the liability shifts from the employee to the firm?

It is 100% fair to hold the company responsible, and doubly so when the questionable thing the employee is doing is something that A) benefits the company, and B) is on company time (aand with company resources.) I know you weren't making a legal-minutia point but even the high level principles involved are and should be the opposite of what you suggest.

Companies may want to have their cake and eat it too (have employees do their dirty work but then push the blame on the employee) but that's not how it works and it's generally not a society you'd want to live in the more we head in that direction.
