There's no need for a new crime when we already have reckless conduct, namely, "conduct that creates a substantial and unjustifiable risk of harm to others and involves a conscious disregard of, or indifference to, that risk".
‘It wasn’t us, it was a bug in the software’ used to be the defense for bad code. Then it became the defense for self-driving cars. Now it’s being used for AI cyber attacks.
Both. This should result in criminal charges.
Who had criminal intent here? Or are you suggesting a new crime for negligent hacking, which wouldn’t require intent from the perpetrator?

AI is dropping out of the spotlight so they are using desperate measures like this.
No, I remember being threatened by OpenAI and then Anthropic (and now both) since back when ChatGPT was seriously useless.

The big question is why are CEOs getting a legal pass when this kind of thing can be prosecuted. That's the problem here.

AI is literally state sponsored so I don't see that happening unless the AI turns against the sponsor.
Wait until OpenAI or Anthropic exploit FAANG.
