Artificial Intelligence makes it possible to create autonomous systems that can execute highly complex tasks, such as processing enormous amount s of information, forecasting future event s, and learning to adapt through experience. This opens up possibilities for predictive policing: AI applications can handle large amount s of complex data (crime data, video stream s from security cameras) and predict when or where crimes will take place. But there are risks to it as well: such system s must respect the freedom and integrity of citizens, the protected nature of personal data, and must not reproduce or introduce illegal profiling or inequities.
