Artificial Intelligence and Liability for its Work

Abstract

Industrial revolution transformed idea of ways and means of production. Introducing robots in the real sector of economy became inevitable process. Degree impact of the person on production cycle decreases gradually and replaced by programs determining behavior of robots and a mentality of artificial intelligence by digital algorithms. Primary researches of artificial intelligence have found reflections in works of software engineers. The legal treatment of the nature of artificial intelligence and a regulation of his use became the big task for domestic jurists. The analysis of possible approaches to disclosure of the concept “artificial intelligence” as legal category and his ratio with the concepts of robot and cyberphysical system is provided in the article. Issues of liability for work of artificial intelligence are revealed. The possibility of recognition for the robot (car) with artificial intelligence, status of a legal entity is studied. The possibility of recognition of legal personality of artificial intelligence in cyberphysical space is separately considered. Work purpose is to offer ways of development of the legislation in the conditions of digitalization of Russian economy and introduction of artificial intelligence. Methods of analysis, synthesis, generalization, induction and deduction, interpretation, classification and comparative methods were used. The research will allow to improve legal regulation of artificial intelligence in economy. Author's look to disclosure of categories of artificial intelligence, intellectual systems and robot from a position of Russian law is offered. Mechanisms of attraction to legal responsibility of appropriate subjects of the right are defined. Author allocates three stages: short-term, medium-term and long-term temporary prospects of development of the legislation defining legal capacity of the robot and artificial intelligence in cyberphysical space, the maintenance of the cyberphysical relations and also the bases of attraction to legal responsibility of participants of the considered relations. Legal regulation of economic activity with use of artificial intelligence has to be based on the principle of convergence of technology and rules of law.
