Police Use AI-Powered Software to Predict Riots and Unrest
Some police services worldwide use AI-driven software to analyze social media and predict crowd movements.
These software tools analyze vast amounts of digital data, including surveillance footage, crime history, and weather conditions, to identify potential hotspots.
Police can receive real-time alerts on their phones or tablets, allowing them to deploy patrols to prevent unrest.
However, critics argue that the use of AI in policing raises concerns about mass surveillance and potential biases in the software.
