Can the police use a photo of a person to identify them in open AI? In these 3 short videos, he teams up with David Williams at Microsoft (Director, Business Programs, Public Safety & Justice Worldwide) as they explore how law enforcement agencies could leverage advanced AI language models (LLMs) for facial recognition technology or back door identification. Also he demonstrates the capabilities of AI-powered Copilot in identifying vehicles from photos and demonstrates how AI technology can be utilized to describe photos for crime scenes.
Chief Lukens discusses the use of AI tools, specifically Microsoft Bing’s Co-Pilot, for identifying vehicles and documenting photographs in law enforcement. He emphasizes the importance of ethical practices and privacy considerations when using AI technologies, particularly in sensitive contexts like policing. The conversation highlights practical applications of AI while urging caution and respect for individuals’ rights.
Chief Lukens began a successful career in law enforcement in Colorado in 1995 as a police explorer and served as the Chief of Police in Alliance, Nebraska from December of 2020 to September of 2023.
Throughout his service, he garnered multiple certifications including Northwestern School of Police Staff and Command, and the Police Executive Research Forum’s Senior Management Institute for Police. Chief Lukens utilizes state of the art technology to reduce staff hours needed to perform intelligence and administrative functions to allow police staff to devote themselves to human and victim centered policing.
His emphasis is AI on the backend, so humans are always available on the front end interaction with humanity. He was featured in Police Magazine’s “2022 Most Innovative Leaders” and is on multiple boards to include IACP’s inaugural Leadership to Combat Human Trafficking Advisory Board. Chief Lukens is passionate about community (human and victim centered) policing with proven results to include his agency receiving the Victims Services award in 2022 from the IACP. Chief Lukens is dedicated to mission accomplishments, evidence-based practices, and 21st-century policing methods with exceptional results including reducing use of force by 85% and reducing overall crime by over 20%.
