The problem of legal regulation in the field of artificial intelligence in the context of the development of the legislation of the European Union

In the offered article the problem of legal regulation in the field of artificial intelligence actual in modern conditions of digital transformation and development of information society is investigated. The main provisions and proposals on the Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council, which should establish harmonized rules in the field of artificial intelligence (Artificial Intelligence Act), published in April 2021 by the European Commission, are considered. The purpose, sphere of legal regulation, basic legal principles, legal mechanisms, specific content of basic legal norms of the Regulations are analyzed. Estimates of the advantages and disadvantages of the proposed legal regulation in the field of artificial intelligence are provided. The actual scientific and applied problems of finding a balance on the interaction of man with artificial intelligence are formulated; determining the possibility of granting a specific legal status for robots with artificial intelligence; development of a model of legal regulation in the field of artificial intelligence and the formation of state and legal guarantees for the protection of human rights, freedoms and security in the application of artificial intelligence. To carry out the study, a system of methods of scientific cognition was used, including general philosophical, general scientific (dialectical, analysis, synthesis, abstraction, analogy), private methods of scientific cognition used in many branches of science (comparative, quantitative and qualitative analysis), and special legal (formal-legal, comparative-legal, system-structural). Recommendations and proposals on priority areas of research on the problems of legal regulation in the field of artificial intelligence are also identified.
