The Problem of Subjectivity of Artificial Intelligence

Abstract

In connection with the problem of inclusion of objects produced by artificial intelligence (AI) into civil transactions turnover, the issue of subjectivity of rights to them must be resolved. One of the possible solutions (some researchers call it the main one) is considering granting the status of a subject of law to artificial intelligence itself. The paper is devoted to criticism of this approach.The social behavior of people is formed on the basis of their physical essence, this relationship will remain valid in the future. It is obvious that artificial intelligence is obviously devoid of physical essence. Even if we talk about a legal entity (in a number of systems, which are fictitious entities), the consequences of its activities are one way or another assigned to individuals.It seems appropriate to endow AI with the object characteristics of an intellectual complex — in line with property complexes in civil law, assigning initial rights to computer program developers. Considering AI as a subject of civil legal relations seems not only unjustified, but also prevents a doctrinal solution to the issue of legal personality, which is a prerequisite for the formation of the norms of current legislation.
