Scientists from the University of Chicago in the United States have developed a new artificial intelligence system that they say can accurately predict crimes before they happen and have already tested it in eight American cities.
Over the past few years, police around the world have increasingly relied on artificial intelligence techniques such as face recognition in the hopes of providing better capabilities to reduce crime rates and speed up arrests. to criminals and suspects, but the results are not always the same. . there was a high degree of accuracy.
Recently, a research team from the University of Chicago in the United States developed an artificial intelligence model that can accurately predict crime before it happens in eight American cities.
Ishanu Chattopadyye, an assistant professor in the School of Biological Studies at the University of Chicago, and colleagues created a model of artificial intelligence. The system analyzed crime data for the 2014-2016 period in Chicago, Illinois, and estimated crime levels in the coming weeks with the data. -feeding period.
The team was surprised that the AI model predicted the likelihood of certain crimes occurring across the city with 90% accuracy a week before they occur. It was also trained and tested on data from 7 other US cities, surprising scientists with similar levels of performance.
The researchers also used the data to look for areas where human bias affects police work. They found that crimes in richer areas resulted in more arrests than in poorer areas; this may indicate a bias in the police response to warnings and reports.
Well ..
What techniques allow the system to be successful at predicting crime a week in advance with 90% accuracy?
What is the guarantee that this system will not fall into the mistakes of racial discrimination?
Does the development of this system really guarantee an unprecedented reduction in the number of crimes?
Among others, questions we discussed in a recent interview with #Whats_New journalist #Ashraf_Shehab.
The guest of the meeting was Engineer Ahmed Zuhair Argob, who is an expert in robotics and data science from Kanpur, India.
