Criminal Policy for Crimes Committed Using Artificial Intelligence Technologies: State, Problems, Prospects

Abstract

The aim of the work is to study the criminal policy in relation to crimes committed using technologies based on artificial intelligence algorithms. The varieties of these crimes are described: phishing, the use of drones, the synthesis of fake information, attacks through automated autonomous systems and bots. Given the fact that artificial intelligence technologies are capable of self-learning and independent actions without direct human intervention and control, the key issue in the criminal policy regarding crimes committed using artificial intelligence algorithms is the question of the subject of criminal liability. The concepts existing in official documents and scientific literature are analyzed on this issue, in the development of scientific discussion, it is proposed to update the legal construction of “innocent harm”. The prospects of criminal policy in this direction are indicated in the creation of a fundamentally new variety of blanket norms: from “law as a text” to “law as a code” and its implementation by technological platforms
