Abstract

It is widely known that artificial intelligence is part of our lives. It is also generally feared that artificial intelligence has a potential to endanger human rights in this digital age. The paper intends to examine whether the European Court of Human Rights, dedicated to protecting human rights in Europe, has been forced to deal with artificial intelligence. The main focus of the analysis is the case law of the Court: after the identification of the human rights potentially in danger, the database of the Court’s case law, HUDOC, has been screened by keyword search. Based on the examination of the jurisprudence, the paper will disclose if the Court has artificial intelligencerelated cases and attempts to predict whether it ever will.
