Axon Enterprise's Draft One generates police reports from body-worn camera audio but lacks transparency and accountability measures. An EFF investigation reveals public records indicate difficulty in determining which report sections are AI-generated versus officer-written. Stakeholders, including police and researchers, find there are no effective auditing practices for this technology, raising concerns about its impact on the criminal justice system. Axon's claims about revolutionary benefits remain unverified, leading to calls for greater access to information regarding the AI’s effectiveness and risks in policing.
Axon Enterprise's Draft One, a generative AI product for police reporting, raises significant concerns about lack of accountability, transparency, and effective auditing in law enforcement.
Public records analysis shows that it's often impossible to distinguish between AI-generated content and officer-written sections of police reports, undermining accountability.
The absence of a robust process to evaluate the use of AI in policing suggests that fundamental concerns regarding accountability and transparency in criminal justice remain unaddressed.
Claims that this technology will revolutionize policing remain untested, highlighting the need for public access to information on its effectiveness and potential dangers.
