Abstract

After a brief, general introduction to AI, the present article will discuss whether AI itself has freedom of expression or whether it only entitles to tech companies that own AI. All this is relevant in the context of whether we can consider AI a separate legal actor in the context of content creation on social media, which is the second main issue of this article. Here, negative and positive cases of content moderation will be presented, i.e., whether the full spectrum of content moderation in social media can be entrusted to AI as a separate actor with respect to liability, or whether moderation requires some form of human control, direction or supervision.
