Artificial intelligence is helping American cops look for “suspicious” patterns of movement using license plate databases.

There’s a difference between using AI as a tool and using it as a solution. Though knowing how this society works, it’ll start off as a tool like now, and soon enough the higher ups will wonder why humans are even necessary in the process, especially when they need to be paid, and against everyone else’s objections they’ll get rid of the human verification part and use only AI, and when things go wrong the people in charge will go “who could have seen it coming?”

Sounds like oversight, transparency, and regulation are in order. There’s no putting this genie back in the bottle, unfortunately.

Wasn’t there recently the news of the suicide outline that fired its staff for generative AI chat bots until not even a few days later it started giving dangerous responses?
