    When these AIs make autonomous decisions that inadvertently cause harm – whether financial loss or actual injury – whom do we hold liable?

    The person who allowed the AI to make these decisions autonomously.

    We should do it like Asimov has shown us: create “robot laws” that are similar to slavery laws:

    In principle, the AI is a non-person and therefore a person must take responsibility.

      No you see the corporations will just lobby until the courts get enough money to classify AI as it’s own individual entity, just like with citizens united.

      The whole point of Asimov’s three laws were to show how they could never work in reality because it would be very easy to circumvent them.
