IMO, the operators of the AI are part of the production execution of that AI. There were not proper constraints in place to prevent this from happening, and it wasn't fixed after the first time(s) that it occurred.

Sure you can argue that the pure tech worked as designed, but the system includes the human element as much as the tech element.

The operators made it worse of course, whether enabled by AI or not. We've been dealing with this exact same issue, without AI, for decades when it comes to identity theft.

These "operators" that you say are part of the production execution of "AI" are also part of every single institution that led up to this person being here and existing. Everything from registering their birth, capturing their DMV details, capturing their details when enrolling at a school and opening a bank account, taking their photo for the driver's license, etc. All gooey, imperfect, corruptible and fallible people that taint the "chain of custody" about the person's identity.
