Are people missing that this AI is being offered by a body cam company?
- istjohn 1y agoWhy do you think that's relevant?
- jameshart 1y agoBecause 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?
- pseudalopex 1y agoThe 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.
- anigbrowl 1y agoThey 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
