The human making the decision is always liable.
What if the human couldn't reasonably know better? Doesn't matter - If they made the same decision without AI or with old files it is still on them.
What if there's no single human decision? Someone is in charge and is responsible. The "I was ordered to" isn't a defense.
Does liability without power make sense? People executing have the power to execute. So liability. If they're executing without power that is a different liability, but a liability.
It may let the powerful off the hook - That is already a theme and AI doesn't change that, in fact, it will just be used as another scapegoat.

It pulls in info from the docs, forums, code samples, shows me how things are connected, and may even suggest why something is good or bad.
Plenty of opportunity to look up docs I didn’t even know about yet.
When was this chill time when we could just take off fishing for a week or two?

And yeah, single breadwinner households were a thing back in the day it was generally because women didn't have a choice at all.
I'm pretty sure you have more options and choice today as to how you want to live your life, but if you want a family you gotta feed the little bastards one way or another, that has always been a "worry".
The US Post is great and all, but I would gladly trade the US post for a large beaver-hunting territory!
Horses are too fast! Walking is better.
Or whatever... come on!
- Your agentic loop hacked something? You're liable. - FSD crashes? The guy in the driver's seat is liable. He/his insurance can sue Tesla to spread the liability...
Nowhere along the line will anyone go "Oh, the AI did it... whoops"
