“KGB agents are spying on me” is the same thing as “KGB is spying on me”, is it not?
An agent is an entity acting on someone’s behalf.

KGB's agents are human, OpenAI's agents are not. It's an important distinction because humans are responsible for their behaviour, while AI agents are not.
You cannot try an AI agent in a court of law, despite the anthropomorphising work the word "agent" is doing.
Exactly. It’s still just software, which someone programmed and deployed to do specifically dangerous/malicious things. I feel like we already have legislation and case law surrounding this.
