Abstract

According to the definition of the law, a person is every being who has the ability to acquire rights and assume duties. Accordingly, the concept of person or personality applies to a human being, and this is certainly the natural and legal person, or to a group composed of individuals or funds who possess legal personality, and this is what is called the legal or legal person. The legal nature  and in the face of the current legal description of the legal nature of the robot, we need to actually focus on the provisions of civil liability for damage to the robot, starting with addressing the definition of the legal nature of these advanced systems and determining in terms of whether they are things or persons or of a unique, special nature. This is because defining the basis Liability and the consequent establishment of civil liability, such as elements and compensation, require us to first understand the nature of those systems The legal controversy arose between the traditional theory and the modern theory in explaining the legal nature of the robot, and this is what we will explain in this study.
