Under the last Trump administration, then-AG Bill Barr legalized pre-crime prosecutions at the DOJ. In 2019, Trump called on social media to surveil users to identify would-be "mass shooters" before they commit any crime.
I now worry that the main AI "predictive policing", Palantir, with multiple ties to the incoming administration and the CIA, or an equivalent going to be rolled out with law enforcement nationwide under the guise of addressing staff shortages and "increasing efficiency." AI is already being used to write police reports and law enforcement management software like the very spooky Mark43 is already widely used by police departments, several of which have trialed Palantir's "predictive policing" functionality. These AIs are not 90% accurate (absolutely less) but even if you believe those metrics, how do the erroneously targeted 10% explain their innocence for a crime that hasn't even happened? Don't fall for the "convenience" and "efficiency" sales pitches, AI pre-crime is the end of liberty.
