Tens of thousands of AI incidents, and liability law is the tool governments won't use
LuizaJarovsky · x · 2026-09-28
AI policy scholar Luiza Jarovsky argues that with Axios reporting OpenAI, Anthropic and security researchers investigating tens of thousands of problematic AI model incidents (far beyond earlier counts), the 'AI is ungovernable' narrative is spreading. Her core point: liability law — a millennia-old principle that unacceptable-risk products shouldn't ship and companies must answer for harm — is a ready-made mechanism, but no government seems willing to use it for fear of being labeled anti-AI or hurting the economy. Those claiming no existing tool can reduce these incidents, she writes, are lying.
