I think there's a meaningful difference between a gun manufacturer and an LLM service provider like OpenAI. A better analogy would be some kind of "guns-as-a-service" model, where the company sends down a drone with a gun and fires it at whoever you point it at, then the drone flies back to base. I think it would be very clear in cases like that that the service provider should be held liable.
