Artificial intelligence is changing the world-but who is responsible for its/our/your/everyone's actions? This book addresses one of the most pressing questions of our time: the personal responsibility of artificial intelligence. As machines learn to make decisions, our understanding of autonomy, morality, and law is shifting. What happens when systems act without their creators being able to fully comprehend their behavior? Can AI take responsibility-or will it forever remain a tool of human intentions? The author takes an interdisciplinary approach, drawing on philosophy, ethics, technology, law, and society to paint a picture of a civilization in transition: from instrumental to interactive technology, from individual to shared responsibility. He shows how legal and moral categories reach their limits when learning systems become independent actors-and why the future of responsibility lies not in machines, but in the relationship between humans and machines. A profound, well-founded work on the ethical and legal redefinition of action in the age of algorithmic culture.
