In this article, the author analyzes the possibility of using artificial intelligence as a virtual assistant in making extraordinary transactions. The emergence of the latest information technology contains the potential for modernizing corporate law. The author notes that the development of information and computer technologies is largely due to public and private investments. Artificial intelligence can become a tool for making decisions with a faster reaction rate to an event. Artificial intelligence is the next stage in the development of robotics, giving the robot the ability to independently make a “new” decision that was not previously included in the program. The advantage of using artificial intelligence in this case is its ability to process an incredible amount of data (information) in a short time. The article emphasizes that the purpose of artificial intelligence is to simplify human activities. Thus, it seems possible to involve an intelligent robot as a virtual assistant in the process of coordinating transactions made by legal entities in a special order. At the same time, the author notes that trusting an artificial intelligence operating in the virtual world to vote on the approval of a transaction, which may entail a significant change in the scale of society’s activities up to its termination, carries a significant legal risk, both for the society itself and for members of its governing bodies. The person who is a member of the governing body of the legal entity must vote on the approval of such transactions.
