Senator Gu, rep. Carson introduces the draft law to set liability standards to AI

Senator Victoria Gu and the representative of Lauren H. Carson sponsor the legislation to ensure that the victims of the accidental injuries caused by the artificial information systems have been legal.

“This draft law focuses narrowly on accidental damages because of you: when a system you behave wrong and does something harmful that the user has never intended, who is responsible?” said Senator Gu (D-Dist. 38, Westerly, Charlestown, South Kingstown), who is president of the newly created Senate Committee for Artificial Information and Emerging Technologies. “This legislation stimulates developers to take appropriate precautionary measures to build safe systems, holding responsible for accidental injury caused by their products. Establishing clear liability standards is an important first step to ensure that growing in a safe, ethical manner. ”

The representative of Carson (D-Dist. 75, Newport), “Cars with full vehicles will be on this year’s roads in Texas, and several systems are integrated into financial systems, medical assistance and more consequences of society. It is important to set a minimum standard of responsibility and responsibility now to make sure Rhode Icelanders are protected in line. ”

In accordance with current law, if a system of a system intends to cause damage or could have reasonably anticipate that their actions would cause damage, the user is responsible, as if acting directly without the help of the system. But, when the injury is caused not because of the user’s wickedness or negligence, but as an inadvertent result of the programming of the system itself, the victims are unlikely to have any use against the user and will have difficulty to prove negligence and obtain the compensation by the developers or suppliers of the AI ​​system.

The legislation (2025-S 0358, 2025-H 5224) would remedy this lacuna, holding the developers of responsible for the injury caused by their systems to nonusers. The legislation would not determine the responsible developers when the damage was caused by the intentional or careless behavior of the system user and could not be able to respond to developers if they could show that the system has met the same care standard that applies to people who perform the same task as the system AI.

“Developers and streams of powerful but poorly controlled systems take risks that innocent people will be injured, and current laws do not always take them accountable,” said Professor Gabriel Weil from Tour School of Law. “This balanced bill, favorable to innovation, would ensure that the victims can request compensation from those responsible for creating and supplying these AI systems.”
