Comparative legal analysis of personal data protection in the process of artificial intelligence development

Since the creating of steam engine, there has been a long tradition of regulating the use of technological innovation in society through legal methods and instruments. Government regulation can provide recognition for a particular technology, set standards that can help a technology be accepted by society, and define criteria under which the use of that technology is acceptable. Thus, regulation has a great influence on the development of innovations and the extent to which technologies are introduced into certain areas. Today, many states, like Russia, the United States of America, state-members of the European Union and many others are developing a mechanism for state regulating technological innovations, including artificial intelligence (called as AI). Artificial intelligence is the basis for many applications such as chatbots, smart assistants, and facial recognition devices. The last feature of AI causes the most controversy argues both in society and in the scientific community. The topic of privacy and protection of personal data especially raises very many questions.
