Abstract

Yapay zekâ ve robotik gibi ileri teknolojilerin Makine Öğrenmesi aracılığıyla elde ettiği otonom öğrenme ve çalışabilme yeteneği sayesinde bu teknolojilerden en üst seviyede fayda sağlanabileceği düşünülmektedir. Yapay zekânın yaşam kaynağı olan verinin ve beyni olan algoritmaların vücut bulduğu robotlar, insansı tasarımlarının bir parçası olan sosyal etkileşim kurabilme yetenekleri sayesinde hem kamusal hem de kişisel yaşam alanlarında yerini alacaktır. Sosyal robotların kişisel kullanımıyla ilgili gerçek kişiler üzerindeki muhtemel sorumluluğun tartışıldığı bu makalede, senaryo yöntemiyle ortaya konulan bir durum üzerinde gerçek kişilerin rıza ve bilgilendirme sorumluluklarına ilişkin sorular sorulacak, bu sorular Avrupa Birliği’nin Genel Veri Koruma Tüzüğü ve Avrupa Adalet Divanı içtihadı kapsamında analiz edilecektir. Evlerinde çeşitli sebeplerle bir sosyal robot kullanan gerçek kişilerin ev içerisinde robotla etkileşimde bulunan diğer ilgili kişilerin rızasını alma ve onları bilgilendirme sorumluluğu bulunmakta; ancak bu durum robotun üreticileri gibi diğer veri sorumluları ve veri işleyenlerin asıl sorumluluğunu değiştirmemektedir.

Possible Responsibilities of the Natural Persons Using Personal Household Social Robots under the General Data Protection Regulation

Abstract

It has been claimed that advanced technologies, such as artificial intelligence and robotic technologies, will be at the maximum benefit of humans due to the Machine Learning methods enabling these technologies learn and work autonomously. The data, as the blood of AI, and the algorithm, as the brain of AI, embodied in robotic bodies will take place both in personal and professional lives, thanks to their ability to socially interact with human as part of their anthropomorphized design. This paper uses the scenario method to be able to analyze the responsibilities on natural persons using personal household social robots in frame of the General Data Protection Regulation and the case law of the European Court of Justice. The paper gives more weight on the questions of natural persons’ possible duties on obtaining consent and informing obligations. Natural persons using a personal household social robot in their home for several reasons indeed have a responsibility to obtain consent from and fulfill their informing obligations towards other persons who interact with the robot, however, this does anyhow not change the actual responsibility of the data controllers, such as the manufacturers of the robot, and/or data processors.
