Legal Person or Agenthood of Artificial Intelligence Technologies

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is developing rapidly. There are technologies available that fulfil several tasks better than humans can and even behave like humans to some extent. Thus, the situation prompts the question, whether AI should be granted legal person- and/or agenthood? There have been similar situations in history where the legal status of slaves or indigenous peoples was discussed. Still, in those historical questions the subjects under study were always natural persons, i.e. they were living beings belonging to the species homo sapiens. We analyse the situation from moral-ethical and practical perspectives. The final conclusion is that the currently existing AI are still so far removed from humans that there is simply no need to think seriously about legal person- or agenthood. Doing so would mean setting obligations on the AI to follow. This in turn would mean that certain rights in relation to those obligations would have to be granted as well. By all evidence, this is something that humans are not ready to do yet and might never get that far.
