Legal framework for AI applications

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI), the most widespread technological term, has become an integral part of human daily life. People are becoming increasingly dependent on AI-powered devices; thus, it is now essential to have a legal framework to oversee artificial intelligence's various uses and legal peculiarities. As artificial intelligence has entered all areas of life and into various sectors, which requires examining in detail the legal nature of artificial intelligence, determining the laws that must be applied to it, and identifying the people or entities responsible for it to determine the scope of their responsibilities for the resulting damages that may be caused to others as a result of the use of intelligence. Artificial, this research aimed to examine the adequacy of the legal rules in Jordanian legislation regulating the provisions of artificial intelligence in light of the diversity of its applications and its different legal nature. The research is divided into two chapters. The first chapter presents the concept of artificial intelligence, and the second chapter discusses the legal liability of artificial intelligence. The results of the research revealed that the Jordanian legislator did not specify the legal nature of the artificial intelligence and contented himself with stipulating it in separate texts, Legal liability resulting from utilizing artificial intelligence systems can be challenged under regulations of the defect in manufacturing, responsibility for guarding things, and the distinction between responsibilities due to the degree of independence and intelligence of artificial intelligence, In determining the liability of artificial intelligence, the legislator should consider the types of artificial intelligence systems, their different capabilities, and their independence from humans, The process of enacting special laws regulating all aspects of artificial intelligence must be expedited. This law should be characterized by flexibility that enables it to keep pace with and rapid development witnessed in this field.
