  Let's not swallow a cat to chase a fly. I'm sure LLMs could help police by for instance, providing a semantic search capability in a document retrieval system. I could see that working a lot better than fuzzy search in some cases (instead of searching for "Robert," "Rob," "Bob," etc, maybe you could identify messages about Robert. With enough context, maybe you could even do this with a message where they weren't mentioned by name.). But writing police reports is a nuts and bolts idea liable to introduce way worse problems than what it purports to solve. Even if this did free up an officer's time, it's not guaranteed that would go to better policing. The department might see it as license to create heavier processes and more paperwork. These reporting requirements don't come out of nowhere, there are strong incentives to create visibility and accountability and they won't disappear if you make paperwork cheaper.
