So far, the printing press is responsible for more deaths than AI.
The printing press was invented at a time when safety standards were virtually non-existent, a time where workers were largely expendable, and most products of the day ended up killing people in some way or another. If the printing press were invented in it original form today it would be outright instantly banned and the creator thrown in jail for gross negligence. Sam-Altman would statistically not be alive given he's now 6 years older than the average life expectancy of a person around the time the printing press was invented.
In modern times under modern workplace laws, printing press deaths are non-existent for all but the most seriously of stupid accidents.
But really I like the point you're making. AI doesn't have moral agency and it's use determines liability, that's your point right? So let's thrown Sam-Altman in jail. After all he ran a company that engaged in an active cyber attack against competitors, governments, and released a product to people with so few guardrails that they themselves can't seem to keep it under control.
