Keywords:

In this scientific article, the author considers the existing scientific and theoretical approaches to understanding artificial intelligence, including in the aspect of determining its responsibility. As the author notes, science fiction literature has always raised the issue of creating artificial intelligence and determining its essence, ethical and legal principles in the functioning of robots.
In the article, the author carried out a comprehensive analysis of the legal prerequisites for the emergence of legal liability of artificial intelligence objects, presented examples of value attitudes regarding the recognition of a particular situation as dangerous for humans, the priority of human life for robots, etc. As the main problems of the legal regulation of artificial intelligence, the author indicates the autonomous and independent of the creators or operators of the work of robots, which in a very serious way complicates the determination of measures and the subject of legal responsibility.
Various approaches to establishing legal responsibility in relation to artificial intelligence are considered. Thus, the positions of equating artificial intelligence objects to legal entities, as well as objects of increased public danger, are studied, their positive and negative aspects are indicated, in addition, the legal and social factors of the possibility of implementing some national and international regulations for the regulation of robotization (France, EU) are assessed. In the conclusion, it is emphasized that along with the enormous opportunities associated with the creation of artificial intelligence, it raises a number of issues of a social, economic, political, technological, legal, ethical and philosophical nature that must be resolved in the near future.
