Abstract

The aim of this paper is to analyse current approaches and perspectives on the development of ethical and legal regulation of artificial intelligence with special regard to its use in health and nursing care. Inextricably linked to this is an analysis of current international and national binding legislation, as well as legally non-binding instruments designed for artificial intelligence developers, manufacturers and users. In addition to the positive benefits of artificial intelligence in health and nursing care, we point out the ethical and legal aspects of its use, such as the legal personality of artificial intelligence, patients' right to privacy, personal data protection and civil liability for damage caused by artificial intelligence. We place the main emphasis on the legislation of the European Union, which has a direct impact on the national legislation of the Slovak Republic.
