Abstract

The tools of artificial intelligence have also appeared in the field of animal protection, raising the question of how the preservation of the animal world can be reconciled with the challenges posed by AI, what connections exist between them, and whether these are progressive or represent yet another source of risk created by humanity. This paper seeks to explore the relationship between these two issues, which, at first glance, appear to be completely unrelated. Does AI have an influence on animal protection efforts, and if so, does it have a primarily positive or negative effect on them? In relation to certain aspects of the impact of artificial intelligence on animal protection (e.g. animal testing, education, robot animals, animal behavior), I also examine the legal responses arising from the new challenges, the impact of AI-generated videos featuring animals, and the issue of recognizing the independent legal personality of animals and robots.
