> Section 230 does not protect text editor software doing spellchecking.

Thats because it is pretty clear that it is the users publishing the content.

If someone wants to make a law that says that all generative AI is created by the user, and therefore only the user is liable for the content, and therefore its not related to section 230, then great that would be an amazing law.

Only someone publishing the generative content should be liable, and then we can not worry about all this section 230 stuff, by just giving complete immunity to the tools creators. Just like how photoshop isn't liable for the stuff that is built using photoshop.

Problem solved.
