as long as we're hiring professionals to do these jobs, part of that real actual human's job is to accept the liability for their work. if a person want to use a tool to make their job easier, it's also their job to make sure that the tool is working properly. if the human isn't capable of doing that, then the human doesn't need to be involved in this process at all - we can just turn the legal system over to the LLMs. but for me, i'd prefer the humans were still responsible.
in this case, "the experimenter" was the lawyer who chose to use ChatGPT for his work, not OpenAI for making the tool available. and yes, i agree, the experimenter should be held accountable.
