The subject of this research falls within the scope of civil law, specifically in the common ground between traditional and modern jurisprudential theories and contemporary technological developments. The research examines the legal status of artificial intelligence systems as newly developed technological entities characterized by autonomy, the ability to learn, and decision-making without direct human intervention. The primary focus of this topic is the concept of legal personality as a regulatory tool. The research discusses the extent to which the current legal system can develop the concept of personality beyond the natural person (human) and the legal person (companies) to include artificial intelligence systems. This research concerns the eligibility of intelligent systems to acquire legal personality, which means that these systems are capable of acquiring rights and bearing obligations, and that they can have a financial liability independent of their manufacturers and owners, and the consequent implications related to the possibility of holding them directly accountable for damages they cause to others.
