TL;DR: Argues that if General Purpose Artificial Intelligence Systems are viewed as group agents we can use existing frameworks to regulate large AI systems.

Abstract: This paper advocates for General Purpose Artificial Intelligence Systems to be viewed as group agents. This view emphasizes their shared agency characteristics and allows for the assignment of collective responsibility, while still recognizing individual accountability when necessary. This perspective could streamline AI regulation, promote responsible use, and ensure accountability.
