EMERGING BASES OF CIVIL LIABILITY FOR ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE SYSTEMS
Main Article Content
Abstract
Given the privacy of artificial intelligence systems, there is a need to establish new foundations for civil liability. Traditional rules are insufficient to establish such liability and to compensate for the damage caused by artificial intelligence systems. As a result, the theory of human substitution has emerged, based on the provisions of the 2017 European Civil Law on Robots. The European Commission has proposed two European directives to the European Parliament. The first directive calls for the review and adaptation of European Directive 85/384 on liability for defective products, taking into account the impact of artificial intelligence. The second directive establishes liability based on the principles of negligence, taking into account the specificity of artificial intelligence.
