ABSTRACT

The use of autonomous vessels and artificial intelligence (AI) in the maritime industry is advancing rapidly, presenting new legal challenges and implications. This research paper will explore the legal implications of these technologies, including issues related to liability, insurance, and regulatory compliance, as well as the impact of these technologies on existing international maritime laws and conventions. Additionally, this paper will evaluate the potential economic and environmental benefits of these technologies, as well as the potential risks and challenges that may arise.

In conclusion, this research paper will provide a comprehensive analysis of the legal implications of autonomous vessels and the use of AI in the maritime industry. By examining the potential benefits and risks of these technologies, analyzing their impact on existing laws and regulations, and proposing recommendations for future action, this paper will contribute to a better understanding of the legal and regulatory challenges associated with the use of autonomous vessels and AI in the maritime industry.
