Good Cop, Bot Cop: AI Partners on Patrol

Wednesday, Sept. 18, 2024
2:00pm to 4:00pm

More Information
Sept.
18

Brad Cotton MBA PhD Candidate from Edinburgh University and Cyber-security expert Ritesh Kotak JD will discuss the good and the bad, the benefits and disadvantages about artificial intelligence for front-line officers. We are honoured to have these two amiable, knowledgeable men, who are former police officers at our season opening webinar. Mike Federico, Vice-President will moderate the webinar.

While at one hand AI has the potential to help improve crime fighting, on the other hand AI has the potential to both create and support criminal activity.

What do police officers and their executives need to know to tip the scales of justice towards crime prevention and away from criminal use of AI?  How can AI help the officer on the street?  Are the risks of AI confined to "hallucinations" or is there hidden risk for penetration of AI systems by criminal elements?

Our webinars offer a wonderful opportunity to "cross-examine" the experts.  We always have adequate opportunity for your questions.  Later the YouTube video is available for viewing by members and webinar purchasers only.

Looking forward to seeing you at the webinar!
