Undoubtedly, human thoughts is indispensable for the development of artificial intelligence (AI), which aims to simulate human intellect. AI’s capabilities are currently constrained by the functions assigned to it, whether to fulfill the specific needs for which AI technologies are employed or due to the present limitations of scientific and technological advancement. These technologies remain globally amenable to further development, and the natural person (human being) still comprehends the cognitive level of AI- dependent technologies. Consequently, the current and future evolution of AI necessitates a parallel development in the concept of civil liability and the formulation of legal solutions to identify the party responsible for damage resulting from the use of these technologies, especially in light of the multiplicity of actors involved.
