Problems of compatibility of artificial intelligence, law and legal consciousness Pavel P. Baranov

Introduction. Artificial intelligence is a new digital reality that has emerged, which inevitably changes our existing reality. Technologies are rapidly and actively penetrating the legal field. But along with this process, various technical, ethical and legal problems arise.

Purpose. To identify the current problems of compatibility of artificial intelligence with law and legal consciousness, as well as to identify areas of work in the field of regulatory regulation of the development and use of artificial intelligence.

The theoretical and methodological basis of the work was the analysis of current legislation in the field of artificial intelligence regulation, the works of domestic researchers in the field of research on the development of artificial intelligence in Russia and abroad.

Results and conclusions. It is shown that the Russian Federation, like other leading powers, faces the need to develop stable and balanced methodological solutions in the field of law in relation to algorithmic systems. The author suggests the following areas of work in the field of legal regulation of the development and use of artificial intelligence:

1. Development of scientific discussion on the problem of legal regulation of artificial intelligence; active interdisciplinary discussion with the participation of lawyers, specialists in artificial intelligence, ethics, as well as philosophers and experts in socio-economic issues.

2. Careful study of the existing foreign experience of standard-setting activities in this field.

3. Active involvement of business representatives in the process of creating various regulatory legal acts and documents regulating the creation and development of artificial intelligence.

4. The development of clear standards that establish that algorithms should be unbiased, safe and exclude elements of discrimination, and the person retains final control over the decision-making process.

5. Protection of personal data by the state through data anonymization systems and the establishment of a mechanism to control information leaks.

6. The legal consolidation of the provision that the developer or operator is responsible for the damage caused by the artificial intelligence algorithm. In parallel, it is necessary to define the legal regime for the content created by AI.

7. Government protection of citizens' digital rights, which should be as basic as social or labor rights. 8. Creation of an effective mechanism for establishing and ensuring a clear legal framework on the part of the state for the safe use of AI in the search for a balance between innovation and responsibility.
