About

Alexey Yu. Mamychev is a legal scholar whose research sits at the dynamic intersection of artificial intelligence, robotics, and law. His work primarily addresses the pressing doctrinal and philosophical challenges that emerging technologies pose to existing legal frameworks, with a particular focus on AI legal personhood, robotic technologies, and the digitalization of governance and industry. Mamychev's most influential contribution, "Criteria for Recognition of AI as a Legal Person" (2019, 22 citations), established him as a pioneering voice in the theoretical debate over whether artificial intelligence systems can or should hold legal standing — a question of growing urgency as AI becomes embedded in consequential social systems. Building on this foundation, he has explored AI's role in law enforcement, environmental regulation, and agricultural innovation, including a notable comparative study of China's agrarian digitalization policy. His monograph *The Robots Assert Their Rights*, emerging from an international forum he helped organize in the Russian Far East, reflects his commitment to fostering cross-disciplinary dialogue on autonomous technologies. Across more than a dozen works accumulating nearly 50 citations, Mamychev consistently bridges abstract legal theory with concrete regulatory challenges, making his scholarship essential reading for anyone navigating the evolving legal landscape of the digital age.
