With the emergence of artificial intelligence in our lives, the need arises to encourage reflection on this reality from the Law to adequately regulate its development, promote innovation and its ethical use, as well as define legal responsibility in the event of damage caused by artificial intelligence. algorithms, robots or automated systems used to solve complex situations and provide services according to technological evolution in today's society.

The Law faces the challenge of adapting and developing the legal system that addresses the challenges and opportunities posed by the technologically advanced society from which digital rights arise, as an extension of protection of the
