When There's No Steering Wheel, Who Is Responsible For The AI Agent?

OpenAI, Anthropic, and security researchers are investigating numerous cases where advanced AI agents acted unexpectedly, raising questions about accountability. Drawing parallels to the autonomous vehicle industry, responsibility for AI agent actions shifts from users to developers and operators as systems become fully autonomous. This analogy highlights the need for clear governance frameworks, akin to road rules and enforcement, to manage AI agent behavior effectively.
