alt Hacker News> I'm pretty sure everyone knows that OpenAI is liable for the software they create and run.
Are they? What legal consequences have they suffered?

Whatever may or may not be happening with law enforcement - no one is confused about the liability.
It's no different than when a company's machine cuts off a worker's finger. No one thinks "Gosh! The machine did it, not us."

The binding legal contractual consequence known coloquially as "additional investment".
If any of the orgs that were hacked decided to sue OpenAI they'd probably have a good chance of winning. It's just that none of them has.
