LEGAL DEFINITION OF THE CONCEPT OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: THEORETICAL FOUNDATIONS AND LEGISLATIVE CONCEPTS

Abstract

This article discusses and analyzes different approaches to defining the concept of artificial intelligence, as well as provides an overview of government policy documents of a strategic nature in the field of digital technology development.

In modern conditions of the active introduction of artificial intelligence in various spheres of life, the issues of developing the legal concept of «artificial intelligence» and fixing it in legal acts require a solution.  

The ongoing processes pose a number of questions to legal science related to the general theoretical understanding of the legal nature of artificial intelligence and the role of law in changing conditions. Today, the study of the specifics of legal regulation of the development and application of artificial intelligence technologies is becoming particularly relevant, taking into account the specifics of specific areas of their application and the legal problems of using artificial intelligence in certain areas, in particular, in the legal field.

The purpose of the study is to define the concept of «artificial intelligence» based on the analysis of various approaches to the definition of artificial intelligence in the legal literature and regulatory legal acts.  The authors note that the current lack of a single concept of artificial intelligence is due to the lack of unity in understanding this concept both in international acts and in the legal scientific literature. The study found that the formation of unified approaches to understanding artificial intelligence is possible with the accumulation of experience in using artificial intelligence technologies and the development of a regulatory framework.

Improving legislation in the field of the development and use of artificial intelligence can have a positive impact on the overall level of development of these technologies and contribute to the technological development of the country. Currently, one of the most important strategic tasks of the state is to improve legislation on the creation and use of artificial intelligence. This requires the creation of a conceptual and categorical framework, regulation of security issues related to the use of artificial intelligence technologies, and legal responsibility.
