ABSTRACT
Existing liability regimes have traditionally been designed around human conduct leading to damage. As the role of the human is increasingly taken over by autonomous systems, current liability regimes under pressure. This chapter focuses on these challenges posed to existing liability regimes and aims to provide clarity on the current legal framework addressing liability for damage caused by an autonomous system, as well as providing a way forward to ensure a balanced approach in both compensating the injured party for damage caused by an autonomous system and providing incentives to prevent damage.
