The issue of super-intelligent artificial intelligence (AI) has begun to attract ever more attention in economics, law, sociology and philosophy studies. A new industrial revolution is being unleashed, and it is vital that lawmakers address the systemic challenges it is bringing while regulating its economic and social consequences. This paper sets out recommendations to ensure informed regulatory intervention covering potential uncontemplated AI-related risks. If AI evolves in ways unintended by its designers, the judgment-proof problem of existing legal persons engaged with AI might undermine the deterrence and insurance goals of classic tort law, which consequently might fail to ensure optimal risk internalisation and precaution. This paper also argues that, due to identified shortcomings, the debate on the different approaches to controlling hazardous activities boils down to a question of efficient ex ante safety regulation. In addition, it is suggested that it is better to place AI in the existing legal categories and not to create a new electronic legal personality.

自主人工智能和意想不到的危险：迈向最佳监管框架

超级智能人工智能（AI）问题已经开始在经济学、法学、社会学和哲学研究中引起越来越多的关注。一场新的工业革命正在释放，立法者在规范其经济和社会后果的同时应对其带来的系统性挑战至关重要。本文提出了一些建议，以确保在知情的监管干预下涵盖潜在的未曾考虑的 AI 相关风险。如果人工智能以设计者意想不到的方式发展，现有从事人工智能的法人的判断证明问题可能会破坏经典侵权法的威慑和保险目标，从而可能无法确保最佳的风险内化和预防。本文还认为，由于已发现的缺陷，事前安全监管。此外，建议最好将人工智能放在现有的法律类别中，而不是创建新的电子法人。
