Let's suppose someone created an actual AI and it did something criminal, like hacking into a bank or something, without the knowledge or control of the creator.
Where would they stand legally? Presumably the writer of the AI code would be culpable for the crime as the AI would have no legal status of it's own
What about if it was done on behalf of a company? Presumably the company then becomes liable in the same way that e.g. BP was liable for the gulf oil spill
What about if it was a group endeavour?
What about if the AI had written new parts of itself of which the creator had no knowledge or understanding?
