Abstract

ABSTRACT Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS), such as GPS or Galileo, have become indispensable in various sectors, including road traffic, aviation, and emergency response services. With recent technological advancements, GNSS have been incorporated as a fundamental constituent of artificial intelligence (AI) systems. Self-driving vehicles, autonomous aircraft, and drones rely increasingly on GNSS, as these technologies are currently the sole source of globally consistent, precise positioning and timing. However, GNSS are not entirely risk-free as satellite signals can be susceptible to interference and other technical malfunctions may cause disruptive impacts on the proper functioning of AI systems. In such context, this article aims to explore the legal foundations for ascribing liability in case accidents are caused by AI systems due to a GNSS malfunctions, in the light of the recent European regulatory initiatives, namely the AI Act, the AI Liability Directive and the revised Product Liability Directive.
