The cynical and unfortunately likely accurate answer here is that you probably can't convict an LLM of a crime because you can't establish intent for an entity that simply doesn't have any.
And you probably can't convict an LLM's owners or operators unless they were dumb enough to include that intent in their prompt.
At most it's probably a civil issue, and even then there are challenges because of a narrowing of damages claims under Van Buren v United States.
Our current laws are likely inadequate for addressing this crap. And it's hard to see that changing under the current regime.

@Viss@mastodon.social @jfslowik@infosec.exchange But don't worry, they'll still throw plenty of kids in prison or hound them to suicide for the same thing.
