Comments for The Baltic Review
Estonia, the wired-up Baltic republic, recently gave the green light to driverless vehicles, which could soon acquire legal identities.
The Estonian Economy Ministry is considering several proposals, including creating a new legal category, “robot-agent,” Bloomberg reports.
Estonia, the cradle of Skype, boasts of being the most computerized country on earth.
European Parliament lawmakers adopted a resolution in February urging the European Commission to consider a legal framework for robots, such as self-driving vehicles.
Lawmakers are concerned about how to establish liability in case of damages inflicted by semi-autonomous vehicles.
