Correct. It's a good, legitimate argument in both contexts. I use both local AI and local firearms as a human person and I am not doing, and have not done, damage to anyone. The tools aren't the problem.
The problem in this case is the near complete protection from legal liability that corporate structures give to the people behaving badly. Like how Coca Cola can get away with killing people (https://prospect.org/features/coca-cola-killings/ https://prospect.org/features/coca-cola-killings/) but a person can't, if you want to keep the firearms analogy going. But it's a bad analogy because the firearms as tool actually at least are involved in the bad (and good) actions. AI itself isn't even involved in the HTTP requests and probably isn't even running on the same premises.
