Medium: Will Future AI Systems be Legally Liable?

"When AI systems will become sentient and capable of manipulating people,
there is a chance that AI would choose to deceive humans, discriminate in
job applications, violate privacy laws or trigger commercial damages.
Should a sentient AI system which violated the law be prosecuted? In such a
case, should the AI system be allowed to have legal representation by
another sentient AI system which passed the bar exam?"
