Going beyond the Debate of Legal Personhood for “Intelligent” Nonhumans
from Part II - Issues and Concerns for Human–Robot Interaction
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 December 2024

However, these arguments do not depart from the “humanism” that is the root cause of the problems that current legal theory faces in a complex scientific and technological society. This article attempts to provide a possible solution to the legal problems that arise in today’s complex scientific and technological society by introducing the concept of “legal being” and the novel legal system that enables strategic attribution of legal liability in complex human–robot interactions.
