How to Punish a Robot

What happens when artificially intelligent robots misbehave? The question is not just hypothetical. As robotics and artificial intelligence systems increasingly integrate into our society, they will do bad things. In this Essay, we explore some of the challenges emerging robotics technologies will pose for remedies law. We argue robots will require us to rethink many of our current doctrines and that the emerging technology also offers important insights into the law of remedies we already apply to people and corporations.

Use of AI in Legal Work

Law and the legal workplace have traditionally been resistant to change. At times, however, there are societal or technological changes so great that the jurist is forced to make a change in turn. Artificial intelligence has been hailed as the leader of a new industrial revolution, promising to effectivize and optimize seemingly all parts of life. Not only that, but on the surface it seems to share a remarkable amount of qualities with the idealized legal practitioner: objective, impartial, consistent, and more. Yet under the surface, alike the legal practitioner in practice, artificial intelligence often hides a host of biases that could prove difficult, or even impossible, to untangle. Consequently, its use—particularly its misuse—could risk threatening the very rule of law. The EU has responded to this threat by proposing a so-called “AI Act”, specifically tailored to the challenges that the use of artificial intelligence presents. In tandem, already existing EU law, such as the prohibition of automated decision-making in the GDPR, has gained new relevance. But even with this targeted regulation in mind, there is still the question of whether the potential benefits of the use of AI in legal work truly outweigh the risks.
