Abstract

Even though so-called “artificial intelligence” is nowadays taking more and more part in our lives, the legal regulation of it is developing quite slowly. To the author’s opinion, one of the reasons hindering the law-making process is the absence of understanding the term itself. In the present article different existing definitions of “artificial intelligence” are examined in order to determine the best one. Upon the research completion the author has concluded that “artificial intelligence” is inappropriate and unsuitable notion, and the author suggests the term “intelligent software” for the group of technologies that is usually referred to as AI now. Such a term encompasses different types of algorithms, programs and methods used for data analysis and recognised as technologies that are able to behave “consciously”: able to learn, self-improve, make decisions, etc. Artificial intelligence itself is only a mode of such intelligent software.
