Someone started that lawnmower and pointed it your direction. Why shouldn't they be responsible when the lawnmower runs over your foot and cuts it off?

We should, which is why anthropomorphizing the lawnmower is bad. It misdirects you away from who built the mower and aimed it.

		Exactly. My comment is a response to "The agents clearly regarded what they were doing as hacking". Regarding implies it is thinking, judging, considering. Which implies culpability, which removes culpability from whoever is piping the output of these models into CPU instructions. Language choice is incredibly important here, especially as the rules are being written. Even calling it AI (a battle that appears to be lost) is an anthropomorphism I am not comfortable with. We don't call lawnmowers "artificial groundskeepers".
