In a series of Webinars over the early summer we heard from a wide range of industry experts on the challenges and opportunities that AI can bring the Justice & Police Sectors
In the first webinar we hear from Paul Taylor, The Police Chief Scientific Advisor for the National Police Chiefs’ Council.
Over the next few weeks and months we will publish a regular weekly video on AI from our webinar series and interviews from around the world leading up to the Inaugural AI in Justice Event in 2025
He discusses the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in policing and dispels some common myths about AI. He emphasizes that AI is not just advanced data analytics, but a specific form of analysis that learns from data. The value of AI in policing lies in its ability to automate backroom tasks, such as processing digital forensic material and automatic redaction. AI is not a predictive tool in policing, but rather enhances efficiency and reduces monotony. The conversation also highlights the importance of data quality in AI applications and discusses potential threats, such as deep fakes and disinformation.
