Ekaterina Smyshlyaeva stated that laws should be understandable not only to lawyers, but also to algorithms.
Majilis deputy Ekaterina Smyshlyaeva stated at parliamentary hearings on the development of artificial intelligence that digital law requires new approaches. According to her, the country needs to train digital judges, lawyers, and prosecutors, Kursiv reports.
"Digital laws are overloaded with technical subtleties, and new concepts are difficult for a humanities student to understand. To implement such laws, we need to train digital judges, lawyers, prosecutors, and legal advisers. Otherwise, errors are inevitable," Smyshlyaeva emphasized.
In the future, laws must be understandable not only to lawyers, but also to algorithms.
"Today, lawyers read laws; tomorrow, algorithms should understand them too. We need to think about machine-readable forms of regulatory legal acts now," the deputy said.
Smyshlyaeva also noted that digital law in the AI era requires expertise and oversight.
“It is already important to test algorithms for bias, robustness, and security,” she said.
Kazakhstan will need to update and implement technical standards, taking into account international experience and national specifics. The deputy also emphasized the need to develop national indices for assessing the level of AI implementation, as international rankings do not always reflect the actual situation for domestic decisions.
