    Many AI systems have been proven to magnify discrimination and inequality. In particular, so-called ‘predictive policing’ and biometric surveillance systems are disproportionately used to target marginalised groups including racialised, working class and migrant communities. These systems criminalise people and infringe human rights, including the fundamental right to be presumed innocent. (source)

    strongly agrees and says:
    Shout it from the rooftops: math cannot predict crime. But it can further criminalize neighborhoods already disproportionately over-represented in police data due to constant surveillance. (source)

    As someone who has worked within the criminal justice system, I believe we should ban predictive policing. It often perpetuates biases and disproportionately targets communities of color. Our focus should be on reforming the system to ensure fairness and justice for all.

    I strongly disagree with banning predictive policing. This technology, when used correctly, can help law enforcement agencies allocate resources more effectively and prevent crimes before they occur. While we must ensure that civil liberties are protected, it would be irresponsible to completely abandon a tool that has the potential to make our communities safer.

    Predictive policing perpetuates bias and discrimination within our criminal justice system. Relying on flawed data and algorithms unfairly targets marginalized communities. We should prioritize human judgment and comprehensive reforms over reliance on technology that can deepen existing inequalities.

    I strongly disagree with banning predictive policing. It's a valuable tool that uses data to help law enforcement prevent crime and maintain public safety. We should focus on addressing any biases in the algorithms rather than scrapping the practice entirely.
