The Perils and Promise of A.I. in Criminal Justice
Event Video
Our liberty, safety, and prosperity are based on the rule of law, not the rule of man or machine. However, given that the criminal justice system suffers from many efficiencies and errors, could artificial intelligence aid the efforts of police, prosecutors, and other actors tasked with protecting public safety with limited resources? Given the power of A.I. technologies to find proverbial needles in haystacks and identify patterns that would otherwise be overlooked, it is not surprising that some criminal justice agencies are already deploying these tools. How can we harness the potential benefits while also ensuring that our liberty and privacy are not compromised? This discussion will feature experts in both the law and technology to help us sort though these questions and identify policies and practices that promote innovation while ensuring constitutional rights are protected.
