    DATASETS UNVEILED: CHALLENGES IN TRAINING AI FOR THE SECURITY DOMAIN
    (Plovdiv University Press, 2025-12-15) Dimitrov, George; Kozhuharova, Denitsa
    The rapid evolution of technology, and the recently adopted legal frame-work at the European Union level, poses significant challenges for both deployers and providers of AI-based systems. Ensuring the quality of datasets used to train artificial intelligence is crucial for meeting the requirements of robustness, transparency, and accuracy. It is essential to verify the origin and method of collection or creation of these datasets, as well as the mechanisms though which they are used to train AI models. These steps are mandatory to ensure the ethical and legally compliant development of AI systems. In the security domain, AI-based systems are increasingly employed by law enforcement agencies for operational purposes and the maintenance of public order. These systems are often classified as high-risk due to their substantial impact on individual privacy, particularly through profiling and the use of big data (point 6, Annex III to Regulation (EU) 2024/1689). Therefore, it is imperative to ensure data protection by design and to establish appropriate legal requirements for the development of such software.

    IS THE CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT TO WORK GUARANTEED IN THE REPUBLIC OF BULGARIA WITH THE INTRODUCTION OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE?
    (Plovdiv University Press, 2025-12-15) Goleva, Polya
    This article advocates the opinion that the right to work, recognized as a fundamental right of every person, is becoming increasingly difficult to exercise in the Republic of Bulgaria, despite its formal enshrinement in the Constitution. The state not only fails to guarantee its realization, but also does not create the necessary conditions for its enforcement. The article indicates the main obstacles to the right to work, but the emphasis is placed on the digitalization of labor and the introduction of artificial intelligence. Author’s special attention is paid to two of the most essential professions in any society, including Bulgaria – medicine and law. Artificial intelligence and related applications are displacing and rendering individual human labour in-creasingly unnecessary, which negatively affects the right to work. At this stage of development, technologies, software programs, ChatGPT, Zoom, Skype, Copilot, and many other forms of artificial intelligence still play a supporting role and do not yet pose an obvious threat of unemployment. However, the growing obsolescence of highly skilled labour and the loss of human relevance in the competition with increas-ingly advanced technologies should soon be expected.

    MEDICAL LIABILITY AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: HOW TORT LAW MAY AFFECT THE USE OF AUTOMATED DEVICES
    (Plovdiv University Press, 2025-12-15) Guido Grasso, Alfio
    The field of medicine is among the areas most heavily affected by the development and application of artificial intelligence. However, this advancement raises ethical and legal issues that are difficult to resolve, especially in cases of harm caused by medical devices capable of autonomous decision-making. In assessing the behaviour of a physician who has used a faulty robotic or diagnostic medical device, the level of control over the device and the accuracy with which the patient has been informed are relevant. These difficulties must also be considered in light of recent legislative proposals in the European context, which seek to address the phenomenon of artificial intelligence from an integrated perspective – both by establishing the requirements it must meet in order to minimise the risk of harm, and from an ex post perspective to better address harm produced. The precision and accuracy of these devices must not be overlooked, and their supervised development should also be promoted through appropriate and targeted liability rules, rather than merely repressive ones.
