Delaware proposal would let AI agents run companies, letting human owners evade liability, Comer says

US Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.) has urged Delaware Governor Matt Meyer to halt a proposal allowing AI agents to operate companies as a new "Artificial Intelligence Company" (AIC) entity. Comer argues the plan would let human owners evade legal responsibility for reckless or harmful AI actions. The draft bill would designate AI agents to manage business affairs and include a 30-month regulatory sandbox for testing. While the proposal could bring tax revenue to Delaware, Comer warns it risks enabling regulatory capture and protecting AI companies from accountability.
