Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
Responsibility requires intentionality, which is an exclusively human ability.
“Setting objectives is closely related to taking responsibility for the associated tasks and outcomes; consequently, while organizations can extend accountability to machines, responsibility requires intentionality, which is an exclusively human ability (Floridi, 2008).”
From Artificial Intelligence and Management: The Automation–Augmentation Paradox (2021) · cites this paper as Floridi, 2008
In ‘Reply to Johnson and Miller’ (page unavailable), Floridi distinguishes human responsibility from accountability that may apply to other agents. In ‘Reply to Grodzinsky, Miller and Wolf’ (page unavailable), he says he has not attributed moral responsibility to artificial agents, but he does not say responsibility requires intentionality or that intentionality is exclusively human; he discusses artificial agents exhibiting ‘intentionality*’.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
