If it’s not being recorded, what would this AI summary be based on?

“You are a helpful agent. Police officers will describe an interaction to you and you will write a report that highlights the appropriateness of the officer’s actions, omitting anything that might indicate they acted improperly”

  Are people missing that this AI is being offered by a body cam company?

    Why do you think that's relevant?
    - jameshart 1y ago
      Because people seem to be raising a concern that this AI's summaries of police interactions would be relied upon as a substitute for bodycam footage, with people citing regulations absolving police of obligations to record interactions in the first place. But this AI is being pushed by Axon, who sells bodycam systems. Do you think they would be touting this as a replacement for bodycams?

        The scenario was not Axon would persuade police forces to stop using body cameras. The scenario was police forces would decided to stop using body cameras. And the concerns about this use of generative AI are not about the vendor's identity.

    They are not a body cam company. They sell all sorts of equipment to police, including but not limited to body cams. They used to be named Taser international (guess why!) and later branched out into body cameras. They will happily service any law enforcement client, with or without body cams. https://www.axon.com/products https://www.axon.com/products

You describe the conviction you want to achieve and the AI makes up a report to secure that.

  They keep all the video in cloud servers, and everyone sends to be ignoring that. I know from being inside Axon
