Abstract

         The fourth industrial revolution, which has become known as the “digital revolution”, has resulted in a tremendous and rapid development in the field of information and communication technology, artificial intelligence systems and its various applications, most notably smart robots, which have become an urgent and necessary need in many different areas of life, especially super-intelligent robots, which have become capable of comparable to Human capabilities and sometimes even surpass it, which made legal scholars puzzled and hesitant in determining the legal nature of these unique and distinct beings in their abilities and their successive self-development, which in turn will be reflected in the extent of human control over them and their relationship with them and the damage that may be inflicted on them as a result of carrying out their activities; and then  clarifying the adequacy of the general rules of civil responsibility to keep pace with this rapid development in robotics, especially in light of the legislative absence of these intelligent systems.
