Intelligenza artificiale e responsabilità civile: le nuove sfide in ambito sanitario

Each generation of lawyers has the task of measuring the impact of technology on the ordering categories of private law. The jurist of the early twentieth century had to record the changes that the motorization of road traffic caused on civil liability, that of the second twentieth century had to deal with the consequences that the spread of mass reproductive models generated on the contract; it was up to the generation of jurists of the last part of the last century to investigate the role of telematic digitization on contracts and copyright. Today's jurist perhaps has the greatest burden, that of neutralizing the impact that artificial intelligence seems able to determine on every branch of law, with an unprecedented degree of pervasiveness. In particular, the structures of civil liability appear, in comparison with the tools of artificial intelligence, often unsuitable for responding effectively to the problems that the use of robotics raises, especially if we look at the health sector. We are facing the birth of new systems of responsibility, the so-called algorithmic civil liability, or robotic liability.

L'articolo si propone di indagare le questioni giuridiche connesse al "danno neutralizzare l’impatto che l’intelligenza artificiale sembra in grado di determinare su ogni ramo del diritto, con un grado di pervasività senza precedenti. In particolare, le strutture della responsabilità civile appaiono, a confronto con gli strumenti dell’intelligenza artificiale, spesso inadatte a rispondere efficacemente ai problemi che l’uso della robotica pone, specie se volgiamo lo sguardo all’ambito sanitario. Siamo di fronte alla nascita di nuovi sistemi di responsabilità, la cd. responsabilità civile algoritmica, o responsabilità robotica.
