Whether you describe it as “regarding” or not, the underlying behavior still needs to be addressed. Does the anthropomorphizing lead us down the wrong path for how we address the issue?

Sort of...
It's how we anthropomorphise corporations which leads us down the wrong path. OpenAI is no longer fully aligned with humanity.
Somehow we call corporations "people" sometimes when it makes them more powerful, but suddenly stop anthropomorphising and don't call them "evil hackers, misusing computers", when they both make and let loose an irresponsible hacking AI.
It's bizarre. Of course, just like AI, corporations are neither people nor machines. They're a dynamic, agentic, persistent other.
The government presses charges against OpenAI. Obviously. This is a felony.
Does the anthropomorphizing lead us down the wrong path? No. If it were you or I who set the same agents free we'd be burned at the stake. The anthropomorphizing has no effect.
Does OpenAI being considered "too big to fail" lead us down the wrong path? Yes.
