Abstract

The aim of the chosen topic. Obviously, stopping the development of artificial intelligence is difficult or almost impossible. Since artificial intelligence technologies are actively affecting virtually every aspect of human life, there is an objective need for a thorough study of the artificial intelligence legal regime. Such research is related to the need to ensure the development of socially oriented technologies that will meet the interests of human security, the preservation of their personal space, will and consciousness.

The purpose of this research is to analyze the legal side of this issue in order to ensure the proper legal regime for the use of artificial intelligence.

The main results of the research. The features of determining the place of artificial intelligence in civil law have been investigated. The question of the recognition possibility of artificial intelligence and the robot as the object or subject of civil rights (legal relations) is considered and the possible risks are analyzed. The author stands for the inappropriateness of understanding artificial intelligence as a civil rights subject. It is more appropriate to understand artificial intelligence as a civil rights object. In addition, when applying artificial intelligence technologies in areas such as medicine or public administration, it is advisable to extend the legal regime of the source of increased risk to this civil rights object, in order to better protect the rights of artificial intelligence technologies users.
