Tasers & Excited Delirium: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO)

"A bill headed to the Senate floor in Utah would require officers to disclose if a police report was written by generative AI. The bill, S.B. 180, requires a department to have a policy governing the use of AI. This policy would mandate that police reports created in whole or in part by generative AI have a disclaimer that the report contains content generated by AI and requires officers to legally certify that the report was checked for accuracy.

S.B. 180 is unfortunately a necessary step in the right direction when it comes to regulating the rapid spread of police using generative AI to write their narrative reports for them. EFF will continue to monitor this bill in hopes that it will be part of a larger conversation about more robust regulations. Specifically, Axon, the makers of tasers and the salespeople behind a shocking amount of police and surveillance tech, has recently rolled out a new product, Draft One, which uses body-worn camera audio to generate police reports. This product is spreading quickly in part because it is integrated with other Axon products which are already omnipresent in U.S. society.

But it’s going to take more than a disclaimer to curb the potential harms of AI-generated police reports."

Here Is What #Axon’s #Bodycam Report Writing #AI Looks Like
Axon has been inviting #police to webinars about the new AI-based product, #DraftOne, a new product that uses #OpenAI’s #GPT4Turbo to automatically generate police reports from officers’ bodycam audio, according to emails obtained by 404 Media.
"Critical safeguards require every report to be edited, reviewed and approved by a human officer, ensuring accuracy and accountability of the information.”
Is that enough?

#USA #Axon #BodyCams #AI #GenerativeAI #Police #GPT: "In April, law enforcement contracting giant Axon announced Draft One, a new product that uses OpenAI’s GPT-4 Turbo to automatically generate police reports from officers’ bodycam audio. The product promises to make police work more efficient, freeing up resources for officers to direct elsewhere, while also raising serious questions about bias, accuracy, and the role of AI in policing.

Since then, Axon has held webinars with prosecutors and law enforcement officials around the country, according to emails obtained by 404 Media and a review of recordings of the webinars online. Those recordings include some of the concerns and hopes of prosecutors around the technology, as well as show Draft One in action, providing more insight on how exactly it works.

“I’d have to see many reports to understand that the AI was capable of writing a cogent, relatively accurate report,” Bryan Porter, Commonwealth’s Attorney for the City of Alexandria, VA, said in one of the webinars. He adds he would need lawyers who are working on cases to review artificially generated reports to make sure “that they are on point and helpful in the prosecution of their cases.”"

#Axon Bets Big On Always-On #Surveillance, Completes Acquisition Of ‘Real Time Crime Center’ Purveyor - https://www.techdirt.com/2024/02/08/axon-bets-big-on-always-on-surveillance-completes-acquisition-of-real-time-crime-center-purveyor/

#Bodycam Maker #Axon Is on a Mission to Surveil America with #AI
Axon, maker of #Tasers and #police #bodycameras, acquired AI #surveillance company #Fusus amid a push into retail and healthcare. This “expands and deepens” companies’ so-called real time capabilities. Fusus operates what it calls “real time crime centers (RTCC)” which allow police and other agencies to analyze a wide array of video sources at single point and apply AI that detects objects & people. https://www.vice.com/en/article/m7bwp4/axon-acquires-fusus-ai-surveillance-retail-healthcare #privacy

#USA #Axon #AI #Surveillance: "Axon, maker of Tasers and police body cameras, has acquired a surveillance company that allows police to tap into camera networks in schools, retail stores, and other locations in cities and towns across America and apply AI technology to the footage. The move comes as Axon is trying to expand its cameras into retail and healthcare settings.

Axon acquired Fusus for an undisclosed sum, according to a news release posted on Thursday. The acquisition “expands and deepens” the companies’ so-called real time capabilities. Fusus operates what it calls “real time crime centers (RTCC)” which allow police and other public agencies to analyze a wide array of video sources at a single point and apply AI that detects objects and people. These centers are reminiscent of the Department of Homeland Security’s Fusion Centers—where intelligence from a diverse number of sources is collected and shared among agencies—and have already expanded to over 250 cities and counties."

"#Axon ran a whole advertising campaign based on the murder of my son,” Todd’s father John Bogers said in an interview, recalling feelings of bereavement that the ads triggered. “They profited off that, and they didn’t ask for permission.“He’s making money off of being a great liar,” Todd’s sister Shelby Bogers said of Smith.” #Tasers https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/axon-taser-corporate-governance/

A week after California bans the diagnosis of "excited delirium" as a cause of death, the American College of Emergency Physicians revokes their 2009 approval of the term which was pushed by #taser manufacturer #axon #AB360 https://www.cnn.com/2023/10/12/health/acep-rejects-excited-delirium-term/index.html

#DroneWarfare #Drones #Tasers #Axon: "Only a few weeks before Smith’s announcement, a majority of the members of Axon’s AI Ethics Board—which consisted of a dozen academics, attorneys, activists, and former law enforcement officials—recommended the company not move forward with a pilot study of Taser-armed drones, then called Project ION. The board had spent more than a year considering the Taser-equipped drone project but had never considered any use case in which it would be a solution to mass shootings.

Advisory board members told The Markup that Smith’s announcement was unexpected and made without consultation or input from the ethics body the company had worked relatively well with for the previous four years. In the past, the board’s work prompted Axon to ban facial recognition on its body cameras out of concern the technology could not be responsibly rolled out."
