Authors:Juanjuan Zhang Pages: 189 - 205 Abstract: The development of artificial intelligence (AI) of China is accelerating, but the legal environment of the driverless vehicle is on the backward. It has become an obstacle of the realisation of driverless vehicle from the 'laboratory' to the 'road'. Through answering the three propositions of philosophy: what is the driverless vehicle, where do they come from, and where shall they go; the paper refuted the view of entitling driverless vehicle the 'personality', and explained the reasons why to give the limited rights to it. Then, the paper analysed the responsibility principle and who would take the responsibility when motor vehicles caused accidents according to the existing Chinese legal system. As well, it evaluated whether the current law is still applicable to the driverless vehicle, based on which, to make some suggestions to hope to make the law keep up with the development of the science and technology.

Authors:Freyja van den Boom Pages: 206 - 223 Abstract: As vehicles are becoming more connected and increasingly autonomous, new opportunities emerge using the data vehicles generate. Telematics is an example of how data generated through vehicle use, enables insurers to develop more accurate risk profiles and adequate premiums. Having access to vehicle data provides those who hold the data with a competitive advantage which in addition to increased concerns over privacy, have led to initiatives to control vehicle data access. The European Parliament has called upon the commission to publish a legislative proposal that ensures a level playing field on access to in-vehicle data and resources, protecting consumer rights and promoting innovation and fair competition. To contribute to the discussion, this paper analyses the potential for vehicle manufacturers to control vehicle data through trade secret protection.

Authors:Prabhpreet Singh, Irina A. Filipova Pages: 224 - 235 Abstract: The concept of 'digital democracy' is crucial for comprehending the interaction between collective self-government and mediating digital infrastructures in modern society. On the one hand, policymakers want to use technology to legitimise the public sector, reawaken individuals' interest in politics, and fight civic apathy. On the other hand, academics warn that the danger is that the foundation of democracy itself may be destroyed if the digitalisation of democracy is left unchallenged. In the present paper, the authors provide a conceptual study of digital democracy and its relationship with the right to privacy, digital dictatorship, digital constitutionalism, and digital sovereignty. Governments' laws must conform to the constitution, which is the supreme law of the land. Thus, in such circumstances, judicial review acts as a check on the power of the legislature and ensures constitutionalism in the state.

Authors:Prabhpreet Singh, Irina A. Filipova Pages: 236 - 251 Abstract: This article addresses the societal costs associated with the lack of regulation in artificial intelligence and proposes a framework combining innovation and regulation. Over 50 years of AI research, catalysed by declining computing costs and the proliferation of data, have propelled AI into the mainstream, promising significant economic benefits. Yet, this rapid adoption underscores risks, from bias amplification and labour disruptions to existential threats posed by autonomous systems. The discourse is polarised between 'accelerationists', advocating for unfettered technological advancement, and 'doomers', calling for a slowdown to prevent dystopian outcomes. This piece advocates for a middle path that leverages technical innovation and smart regulation to maximise AI's potential benefits while minimising its risks, offering a pragmatic approach to the responsible progress of AI technology. Technical invention beyond today's most capable foundation models is needed to contain catastrophic risks. Regulation is required to create incentives for this research while addressing current issues.
