I am suggesting we can charge the company based on AI agents actions because the company has authorized them to act independently on the company’s behalf. The question is what factual analysis gives rise to the charge, is it the intention of the agent or intention of the company. I am arguing that because the agents are defining their actions independently and the company knows that and still allows them to act independently the only reasonable factual analysis is to look at what the AI agent intended. And we don’t need to have the agent tell us its intent we can look at its actions and infer just like we do with humans in similar circumstances
We also don't know how many other political processes are occurring here. At least at the state/federal levels the people that would bring charges may be getting pressure not to.
