However, the article also highlights that AI should be deployed as an assistive technology with human oversight to review AI-generated information for inaccuracies or biases. It suggests starting with narrowly scoped projects for AI deployment and ensuring regular training and communication with users. Ethical, privacy, and civil liberties concerns related to AI are also being addressed at various levels. The article concludes by stating that the effective deployment of mobility and AI can transform public safety agencies for the better.
Key takeaways:
- Mobility technology in public safety improves crime-fighting by providing real-time updates and allowing officers to file reports from any location, thus increasing efficiency and safety.
- Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to transform public safety by improving efficiency, correlating evidence and information, and assisting in crime prevention.
- AI should be deployed as an assistive technology with humans always in the loop to review AI-generated information for any inaccuracies, biases, or 'hallucinations'.
- Issues such as ethical, privacy and civil liberties concerns, and how data collected using AI is stored and for how long, are important topics that need to be addressed when deploying AI in public safety.
