Multiple commentators raise concerns that generative AI complicates how intent and accountability are assessed in Indian courts under the recently introduced Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS). The core issue discussed is attribution: where an AI system produces or assists in harmful outcomes, legal responsibility may hinge on proving intent and determining which human or organizational actors should be treated as responsible. Sources argue that the traditional approach—seeking to limit liability by claiming that an autonomous or “tool-like” system acted independently—may be harder to apply as AI capabilities advance and generate outputs that influence decisions and outcomes. Experts say courts will likely need clearer ways to evaluate the role of developers, deployers, and users, including how systems are configured, what safeguards are in place, and what knowledge or oversight is exercised by those operating the technology. Overall, the discussion frames the BNS and evolving AI use as creating new legal tests for establishing responsibility when AI is involved in alleged wrongdoing.
