This academic article examines civil liability and tort damages caused by autonomous robots equipped with artificial intelligence, proposing them as quasi-parties in civil relations. The authors introduce a classification system for tort obligations resulting from robot actions based on the object of the obligation, the level of damage, the responsible party, and the economic sector. The framework aims to reduce procedural costs in court cases and help assign responsibility among inventors, programmers, manufacturers, owners, or third parties before robots are formally recognized as legal subjects.

Who issued it
Who it governs
Legal scholars, legislators, and researchers should read this to understand proposed frameworks for assigning civil liability and tort damages caused by autonomous AI systems.
What the document contains
The document addresses the legal categorization of tort liability and damages caused by autonomous robots with artificial intelligence. It establishes a classification system considering the object of the obligation, the financial level of damage, the party responsible for the robot, and the relevant economic sector.
The text does not provide binding statutory legislation, actual adopted amendments to the Russian Civil Code, or comprehensive international enforcement mechanisms.
- The rapid evolution of artificial intelligence and autonomous systems necessitates new legal mechanisms to govern man-robot and robot-robot relations.
- Robots can be divided into two main groups based on whether they possess artificial intelligence.
- Liability for damages caused by autonomous robots can be distributed among inventors, programmers, manufacturers, users, or third parties depending on the specific circumstances.
- A proposed classification system categorizes robot tort obligations by object, damage level, responsible party, and economic sector to streamline judicial proceedings.
- Introducing a classification framework can reduce procedural costs in court until autonomous robots are fully recognized in civil law as quasi-parties.
