International Law and Artificial Intelligence

International Law and Artificial Intelligence

Year:    2018

Author:    Burri, Thomas

German Yearbook of International Law, Vol. 60 (2018), Iss. 1 : pp. 91–108

Abstract

This article proposes five arguments about major aspects of artificial intelligence and their implications for international law. The aspects are: automation, personhood, weapons systems, control, and standardisation. The arguments in aggregate convey an idea of where international law needs to be adapted in order to cope with the artificial intelligence revolution under way. The arguments also show the inspiration that may be drawn from existing international law for the governance of artificial intelligence.
