Driver isn’t liable if the engine explodes while he’s following the rules of the road.

Now you’re moving the goalposts. We have instances of LLMs hacking and attacking other companies, which is a clear violation of multiple laws that would put a human being in prison. There is no “just following the rules of the road” here.

let’s say with cars marketed as “FSR”, people would believe it is full self-driving. because it is marketed as such. the exact words are there. is it entirely the consumer’s fault?

This is exactly the same issue as who is liable for using a LLM tool. You cannot pawn off responsibility onto a computer system. If you run over someone with your self-driving car, you’re at fault.

So, a less deterministic software means you are blameless?

suggesting the drivers who steer cars would be the ones liable for harm

You think this too is too broad of a law? It’s equivalent.
