> I'm not sure where in our lawbooks there are laws that specifically target humans to the exclusion of human-operated tools.

It doesn't need to. Laws are for humans.

Laws don't give rights to chainsaws. Or lawnmowers. Or kitchen knives, hammers, screwdrivers, and spades.

You can't use any of those to commit a crime and then claim that the law specifically did not exclude those tools.

Why are you seemingly in favour of carving out an exemption for LLMs?

Laws are for humans.
