The progressive development of artificial intelligence (AI) products has led to the creation of smart robots which have the capacity to learn and make independent decisions. These high- tech smart robots are unpredictable, which entails risks for, among other things, third parties. Today, product safety is mainly regulated by Produktsäkerhetslag (2004:451) (PSL) and product liability by Produktansvarslag (1992:18) (PAL). The overarching goal of these two safety and liability regulations is to ensure that all products, including AI products, function safely and that any damage caused is effectively addressed. Although applicable Swedish law constitutes a reliable regulatory framework for safety and product liability, the legislation is not fully comprehensive; current legislation is not adapted to product safety issues or product liability conditions which can arise specifically from smart robots.
