ABSTRACT
The fast pace of development of Autonomous Vehicles (AVs) is one of the major challenges along with opportunity for the development of International Law. This paper will focus on the incorporation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in AVs, clarifying the function of AI in enhancing safety, efficiency, and navigation of AVs. Furthermore, it will examine the levels of automation of AVs basis the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) standards, which will shed some light on the different levels of AVs and the legal implications of each level.
At the heart of the debate are the liabilities surrounding accidents and damages caused by AVs, which are challenging traditional laws and have prompted the development of liability laws and insurance systems. The paper also discusses some of the key concerns regarding the privacy and cybersecurity of AVs, which are based on the significant data collection activities of AVs and the misuse of such data.
This research strictly adheres to a Doctrinal methodology and extends to the realm of existing state legislation in various legal orders, illustrating how various jurisdictions are navigating through the complexities of regulating AVs, ensuring safety and ethical considerations. Through a synthesis of these factors, this research hopes to contribute to an understanding and creation of a cohesive legal framework that can effectively govern the unique challenges brought by AVs.
Keywords: Autonomous Vehicles, Artificial Intelligence, Liability, Damage, International Regulation, Safety Standards.
