Appropriate Sanctions for Crimes Involving Artificial Intelligence Systems

Abstract

Artificial intelligence-related crime is expanding in parallel with rapid technological development, creating an urgent need for appropriate sanctions that safeguard individuals and society. Such offences include the use of artificial intelligence systems to commit fraud, violate privacy, disseminate misinformation, and carry out cyberattacks. The applicable sanctions should be proportionate to the gravity of the harm caused and the degree of the offender’s criminal responsibility. They may include financial penalties, custodial sanctions in serious cases, and compensation for the damage sustained by victims. A clear legal framework can curb the misuse of artificial intelligence technologies and promote their responsible use.
