CRIMINAL ACCOUNTABILITY FOR AI: MENS REA, ACTUS REUS, AND THE CHALLENGES OF AUTONOMOUS SYSTEMS

CRIMINAL ACCOUNTABILITY FOR AI: MENS REA, ACTUS REUS, AND THE CHALLENGES OF AUTONOMOUS SYSTEMS Akanksha Priya,Pursuing LLM in Criminal Law from Amity University, Batch 2024-2025 Download Manuscript doi.org/10.70183/lijdlr.2024.v03.13 Criminal accountability for harms caused by artificial intelligence systems presents profound challenges for traditional legal frameworks. The mens rea and actus reus pillars of Indian criminal jurisprudence face conceptual strains when applied to algorithmic decision-making. AI systems lack human-like mental states and discrete physical acts that form the foundation of criminal culpability. The Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 and other Indian laws inadequately address these accountability gaps. This article examines the conceptual and practical obstacles to AI criminal liability under current Indian legal frameworks. It analyzes relevant provisions of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and identifies their limitations in AI contexts. The article explores comparative regulatory approaches from the European Union, United States, United Kingdom, Singapore, and other jurisdictions. The article concludes by proposing legal and policy recommendations for India to address AI criminal accountability challenges. These include establishing AI-specific legislation, incorporating risk-based obligations, mandating human oversight for high-risk applications, and developing specialized enforcement capacities. The article emphasizes the urgent need for Indian legal frameworks to evolve beyond anthropocentric paradigms and accommodate the distinctive characteristics of artificial intelligence. Only through such evolution can India establish effective and legitimate mechanisms for attributing criminal responsibility when AI systems cause harm.

BEACONING THE ETHICAL AND LEGAL COMPLEXITIES OF AI REGULATION: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS IN INDIA AND CHINA

BEACONING THE ETHICAL AND LEGAL COMPLEXITIES OF AI REGULATION: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS IN INDIA AND CHINA Sadaf Khan, Student at Government New Law College, Indore Puneet Sharma, Student at Government New Law College, Indore Download Manuscript doi.org/10.70183/lijdlr.2024.v02.62 The relatively quick development of artificial intelligence (AI) has generated discussions about the advantages and disadvantages of this technology on a global scale. In a subsequent warning, the UN Secretary-General acknowledged that the “runaway development of AI without safety barriers” posed an “existential threat” that, if unchecked, could intensify global inequality.[1] This demonstrates the pressing need for strong governance frameworks to guarantee that the advancement of AI reduces risks while promoting societal benefits. China and India are two new AI research and development superpowers with different regulatory strategies influenced by their respective sociopolitical, cultural, and economic environments. India has taken a cautious and well-rounded approach to regulating AI, seeking to promote innovation while tackling moral issues like data security and privacy. Programs such as the National AI Strategy by NITI and the Digital India initiative. In order to promote innovation while addressing ethical concerns like privacy and data security, India has taken a watchful and well-rounded approach to AI regulation. Initiatives such as the Personal Data Protection Bill, the Digital India program, and NITI Aayog’s National AI Strategy clearly show India’s dedication to establishing a regulatory framework that protects individual rights while fostering the development of AI. Issues like poor infrastructure, a lack of funding, and a lack of digital literacy continue to be major obstacles to India’s full AI potential. China, on the other hand, has adopted a more persuasive, state-driven strategy and roadmap to become the world leader in AI technology by 2030. Prioritizing national security, the Chinese government has created thorough regulatory frameworks, such as the Deep Synthesis Provisions and the Generative AI Measures. The ethical repercussions of AI, algorithmic bias, and the potential for AI to fundamentally alter labor markets and worsen societal issues are among the challenges that both nations face, despite having clearly different regulatory frameworks. In order to ensure the ethical, responsible, and inclusive development of AI globally, this paper examines the regulatory differences between China and India and makes the case that international cooperation and the creation of sustained, accommodating governance frameworks are pivotal.

AI AND THE LEGAL FRONTIER: BALANCING INNOVATION AND CHALLENGES IN THE AGE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

AI AND THE LEGAL FRONTIER: BALANCING INNOVATION AND CHALLENGES IN THE AGE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE Md. Jewel Ali, LLM Student at Department of Law, Aliah University, Kolkata Download Manuscript doi.org/10.70183/lijdlr.2024.v02.30 Artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing the legal profession, bringing significant benefits in efficiency, cost reduction, and access to justice, while also introducing challenges related to employment, legal accountability, and data privacy. AI-powered tools are automating the tasks like legal research, document review, and contract analysis, allowing lawyers to perform these duties faster and more accurately. This automation, however, raises concerns about the future of entry-level legal jobs, as junior lawyers and paralegals traditionally handle much of such labor-intensive work. As AI takes over these tasks, fewer entry-level positions may be required, forcing law firms to reconsider traditional billable-hour models and adapt to a new pricing structure. At the same time, AI is creating new opportunities within the legal field. Lawyers who can manage AI technologies, interpret AI-driven insights, and integrate these tools into legal practice will be in high demand. The profession is likely to see new roles emerge, including AI ethics advisors and legal technologists, reflecting the growing need for expertise in the intersection of law and technology. In conclusion, AI offers transformative potential for the legal profession, streamlining processes, and enhancing access to justice, but it also presents ethical, legal, and practical challenges. Legal professionals who can harness the power of AI while ensuring compliance with legal standards and ethical guidelines will thrive in this new era. However, regulatory frameworks must evolve to adequately address the unique risks posed by AI, ensuring that its benefits are realized without compromising fairness, transparency, or accountability in the legal system.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) IN LAW: FROM FICTION TO REALITY

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) IN LAW: FROM FICTION TO REALITY Rohit Arora, Advocate, District & Sessions Court, Kurukshetra. Download Manuscript ABSTRACT The future has already been created and AI is the future which has the ability to dominate the entire world. The use of AI has already started but without regulations, it will be like playing with fire. AI is the most powerful and risky tool, which was prepared in very less time while it should have taken double or more of it. It is powerful because it can learn and improve itself automatically without human intervention. More questions will be asked from AI powered chatbot or integrated with existing technology, and the more intelligent it becomes, and it is risky because it has the ability to dominate the entire world. Technology is the output of imagination and imagination doesn’t cost anything, but technology does. Today, some AI powered tools are free for everyone which means the data of individuals is a consideration and regulation regarding this is very much needed to secure it. AI can be used in both positive and negative ways, as it totally depends on the user. AI gives more accurate solutions than humans and it has the ability to replace humans, but not completely. The developers of AI are also giving hints about the risks to humans in the future due to this technology. AI can be used in every field and legal field is no exception. Everything is possible with technology and the whole world is witnessing the revolution of the Internet and AI is the next revolution in the tech industry in, so it should be adopted by everyone and used in the best possible way with due care.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS: ASSESSING AN IMAGINABLY UNIMAGINABLE FUTURE

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS: ASSESSING AN IMAGINABLY UNIMAGINABLE FUTURE Subramanyan H,Student at Delhi Metropolitan Education. Shivamm Kansal,Student at Delhi Metropolitan Education. Download Manuscript ABSTRACT Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a concept that has been in the spotlight ever since the day when Sophia, the first ever globally recognized robot citizen of Saudi Arabia mentioned taking over the world during a programme in April, 2017. Recently it rose to prominence when Elon Musk remarked about AI taking over the world in the coming years. AI notions are undoubtedly alien to the majority of us in today’s society but it can be understood briefly as the process by which it is possible to programme computers to imitate human intellect. Sir Stephen Hawkings once remarked that “it seems probable that once the machine thinking method had started, it would not take long to outstrip our feeble powers. They would be able to converse with each other to sharpen their wits. At some stage, therefore, we should have to expect the machines to take control.” Some believe AI to be extremely helpful since they can relieve the humans from tedious and harmful jobs while others believe that they will take over the human role hence creating lack of jobs resulting in poverty, deaths and other unwarranted causes. Thus, it is crucial to comprehend artificial intelligence (AI), their impact on human existence and how the Constitution of India could be read in the near future in order to incorporate AI. The objective of this Article is also focused on persuading the reader to comprehend the likelihood of robots having “rights” within the next 40 to 50 years.
