Abstract
The objectives of this study are to assess the feasibility of endowing artificial intelligence with legal personality and to assess the possibility of applying legal liability measures to artificial intelligence. The article studies the essence of artificial intelligence technology, analyzes the reasons for the emergence of opinions about the need to vest artificial intelligence with subjective rights. The study examined scientific and official positions of legal doctrine: justifications of legal scholars, the trend of the legislative position of the European Union, practical examples from foreign experience concerning the issues of vesting artificial intelligence with rights and applying liability measures to it. As a result of the study, conclusions were drawn about the classification of artificial intelligence as a source of increased danger, the inexpediency of endowing artificial intelligence with legal personality and establishing liability measures against it, the need for technical development and legislative consolidation of mechanisms for monitoring the activities of artificial intelligence and the people using it.
