Abstract
The article explores the role of the state in the development and regulation of social processes that are changing under the influence of artificial intelligence technologies. The state, as the most powerful tool for organizing social processes, cannot but pay attention to innovations that permeate almost all spheres of society. Artificial intelligence provides the state with new tools, but it also requires government influence in order to ensure the security of society and regulate changing social relations. The purpose of the article is to conduct a theoretical analysis and determine the optimal model of government intervention in the formation of legal norms that regulate public relations arising in connection with the creation and application of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. The conducted theoretical analysis allows us to conclude that the role of the state in regulating legal relations related to AI should be fundamentally new — not absolutely limiting but guiding and ensuring the development of these technologies. The State needs to create an adaptive legal environment based on relevant ethical and legal principles, which should be based on stimulating innovation and mandatory consideration of risks to society. State standards in the field of AI are of fundamental importance today, outlining the contours for future legal regulation through laws and regulations. There is an obvious need to introduce flexible regulatory models, such as experimental legal regimes, which will allow law to evolve synchronously with technological progress, ensuring legal certainty and protection of public and private interests.
