Introduction. This paper will analyze the legal and ethical aspects of using autonomous unmanned aircraft. Full autonomy requires the use of AI which is replete with its own controversies: technological, ethical, moral and legal. The main problem to consider is whether the public is ready for autonomous drones since it is extremely difficult to develop satisfactory validation systems which would make the technology safe and would act like humans. And if so, do we have the technological infrastructure ready for such operations? And if we do, what are the legal consequences in case of an accident? Material and methods: The method of study comprises a survey analysis and a content analysis of existing legislations and literature. Results: The study results show that the more formalized the process of ensuring the safe and compatible functioning of systems based on artificial intelligence and machine learning, the greater the level of trust. There is also a practical problem in determining what an autonomous drone is and who should bear responsibility in the case of autonomous or semi-autonomous systems with no human control. The current civil liability regulations need to be adjusted to consider the problems that may arise in the event of damages caused by autonomous unmanned aircraft.
