What happened
A proposal in Delaware aims to create a new corporate entity called an Artificial Intelligence Company, which would allow businesses to be operated by AI agents. US Representative James Comer has requested documents regarding the plan, warning that it could allow human owners and investors to evade legal responsibility for harmful AI actions.
