Abstract: This principle highlights the need for humans to accept responsibility for robot behaviour and in that it is commendable. However, it raises further questions about legal and moral responsibility. The issues considered here are (i) the reasons for assuming that humans and not robots are responsible agents, (ii) whether it is sufficient to design robots to comply with existing laws and human rights and (iii) the implications, for robot deployment, of the assumption that robots are not morally responsible.
