Law and Artificial Intelligence (AI): Balancing Innovation with Accountability

Abstract

This essay explores the ways in which artificial intelligence challenges established legal norms. Rapid growth drives efficiency, sharpens processes - but also raises alarms about personal information, unfair outcomes, unclear responsibility. Questions grow over who owns machine-made work, what happens to employment, whether national security could weaken. Legal systems adjust slowly, trying to shield people without blocking new ideas. Rules emerge not to stop change, but to guide it through risk. Out in India, regulations begin the journey, compared quietly with global methods. Noticing changes in court decisions becomes a key part of the view. Moral questions appear, tied tightly to challenges some fields face alone. Balance comes through transparency, accountability, human oversight, and rules shaped by risk levels.
