It addresses the benefits brought by this new technology: expansion of human decision-making capacity, automation, research and innovation, medical school and education, among others. It examines the risks it presents, concerning impacts on the labor market, use for military purposes, dissemination of misinformation and violation of fundamental rights. Finally, it proposes principles for the regulation of AI. The paper demonstrates that AI is a technology with great potential, whose real effects depend on the use we make of it. In such conditions, the law and its operators must look for an institutional design that encourages its positive use and contains its distortion.
