AI is a tool

Similarly you can't blame a hammer for causing harm, you blame the individual who holds it.

    If you crush someone's skull with a hammer, you are responsible, not the person who made the hammer. But what if you crush someone's skull with a hammer that was sold to you as a head massager?

    Sort of. With something as simple as a hammer sure, but when the hammer is equipped with a 9mm pistol then it falls under different safety standards that deem the tool inherently unsafe. A physical tool would be recalled if somebody got hurt in an unintended way.
