| Summary: | Robots are machines that people use in many different ways. They are becoming more popular in fields such as the military and hospitals. However, as robots over time become more intelligent, some people are increasingly concerned about the risks and crimes they could indefinitely be involved in. There are rules and laws that are certainly put in place to exactly determine who is responsible if a robot makes something wrong, such as the people who make, program, own, or use the robot. We undoubtedly need to think about situations where robots might do bad things on their own or if someone uses them in a bad way. This study highly examines the risks behind employing robots in medicine and the military and questions whether robots should have legal rights like humans. The goal is fairly to set clear rules about who takes responsibility if a robot does something erratic. The research definitly suggests that we need rigid laws to protect against the use of robots in criminal activities. For example, the use of military robots in conflict violates Article 6(1) of the European Code of Conduct for Military Machines. In addition, there is a significant increase in the use of medical robots to collect patient data without their consent for illicit financial gain. It is especially important to emphasize that robots do not follow ethical standards and do not have the medical expertise that human medical workers have. In addition, they are vulnerable to malfunctions and loss of control, which can greatly put people's lives at risk. Therefore, we strongly recommend developing an effective legal framework to address any legal risks arising from bot activities. It is very important to have age-appropriate laws and regulations to govern the development and use of robots to effectively reduce potential risks. |
