Paper Title
CRIMINAL RESPONSIBILITY ARISING FROM APPLICATIONS OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN THE JORDANIAN PENAL ACT
Abstract
Abstract - We are living our present days in an information revolution that has made us on the cusp of a new world in which virtual transactions prevail and an electronic crime scene that has gone beyond the limits of materialistic behavior and is characterized by its unlimited breadth when the applications of artificial intelligence and robots appear, especially since we have begun to rely on them in the many and different fields of life, all of which led to the creation of many difficulties About the nature of criminal responsibility for the actions of applications that operate with artificial intelligence, and the extent to which the criminalization texts in the Jordanian penal legislation absorb and criminalize these acts, and can the machine that operates with artificial intelligence be held accountable in the same way as a natural person? And if we accept this, is there a special type of punishment that is compatible with the nature of artificial intelligence applications? In order to achieve the desired goal of this research, it was necessary to shed light on that responsibility according to the texts of the current penal legislation and discuss it.
The research concluded with a set of findings and recommendations, the most important of which is that the development we are experiencing today in the field of artificial intelligence, which may precede human intelligence, has put us in front of an obstacle in assigning criminal responsibility to those applications for their actions that violate the law. And that what Hollywood embodied in its fictional films in our war with God and robots may become an inevitable reality in the near future, which entails the need to expedite the enactment of a legislative system to define the legal framework for criminal liability arising from the work of artificial intelligence applications.
