Police Departments Implement AI for Faster, Accurate Report Writing

New AI tool Draft One aims to reduce paperwork time, but raises concerns about accuracy and bias.

  • Draft One uses AI to transcribe body camera audio and generate reports in seconds.
  • The technology promises to cut report-writing time by 30-45 minutes, allowing more community engagement.
  • Concerns include potential AI 'hallucinations,' racial bias, and legal reliability of AI-generated reports.
  • Some departments limit AI use to minor incidents, while others apply it to all cases.
  • Legal experts and community activists call for more scrutiny and safeguards.
