During an Oracle financial analysts meeting, CEO Larry Ellison expressed his belief that AI could eventually facilitate extensive surveillance networks for law enforcement. “We’re going to have supervision, ” he stated. “Every police officer will be monitored at all times, and if an issue arises, AI will identify it and notify the relevant authority. This will encourage citizens to behave properly, as we will be continuously recording and documenting everything that happens. ” Ellison posits that persistent AI-driven surveillance could significantly lower crime rates.
However, the evidence does not necessarily back up this claim. As noted by The Washington Post, historical police data in the U. S. reflects inherent biases, and incorporating this data into an AI model might lead it to indicate higher criminal activity in those regions, potentially creating damaging feedback loops based on race and socioeconomic status.
