Dogs are alive. AIs are not alive.

Perhaps, but what about the new US designated superintelligence?

If my car rolls into you, you can say it rolled into you, or that I let it roll into you, but those things can both be true.

Okay, what are you getting at? You think the owner of a car isn't responsible for what the car does?

The point is that it's a perfectly valid use of the English language to describe AI models as doing things, just as we do with all sorts of other clearly non-living things. This is true regardless of who carries the legal liability for those actions.

		Yes, if my dog bites you, or if I drive my car into you, or if I dont put my parking brake on and it rolls down the hill and runs you over. I am the one who is responsible. Cops dont write a ticket to the off leash dog that ran across the street and sunk its teeth into my leg. They write it to the owner. Cops dont write a ticket to the car in neutral, they write it to the operator. If a PERSON executes software, and that software breaks the law, the PERSON that executed the software should be held responsible. AI is software. It is not a sentient person who can be fined, thrown in jail, or held accountable.

In law, intent matters. You should look up the difference between murder and manslaughter for example. Each has multiple degrees as well.

I would say that you were negligent in your responsibilities, and allowed the car to roll into me.
