Observatoire de l'Europe discusses the risks of removing specific liability rules for AI systems in the European Union, focusing on the potential impact on victims' rights to compensation. The article highlights concerns that existing liability laws may be inadequate to address harm caused by autonomous AI systems, particularly in cases involving complex algorithms and automated decision-making. Legal experts argue for comprehensive liability regulations that define responsibility for AI developers, users, and manufacturers to ensure victims can seek redress.

The report emphasizes the importance of aligning AI liability laws with the broader EU legal framework, including the AI Act and data protection regulations. As AI adoption grows, establishing clear liability standards will be essential to protect consumers and maintain trust in AI technologies.
