Artificial intelligence includes three main evolutionary processes: weak artificial intelligence stage, strong artificial intelligence stage, and super artificial intelligence stage. As a crystallization of human wisdom, whether AI can become a legally qualified subject, and how to define the legal attributes of AI under the three different development stages, the author analyzes and discusses whether it has an independent will, whether it can independently assume legal responsibility, and whether it has an independent legal personality. Since AI technology has unprecedented autonomy, intelligent objects, and intelligent robots are closer to human intelligence than ever before, the risk of its loss of control, the degree of alienation it fosters, and the threat and impact on human subjectivity will likely be unprecedentedly strong. Is it possible to consider a new system of unified regulation for AI and its alienation? Is it possible to "humanize" AI, to classify and regulate AI according to its different stages of self-evolution by analogy with the trichotomy or tetrad of responsibility? This paper will analyze and elaborate on the above.
