On Tuesday, Axon, the $22 billion police contractor best known for manufacturing the Taser electric weapon, launched a new tool called Draft One that it says can transcribe audio from body cameras and automatically turn it into a police report. Cops can then review the document to ensure accuracy, Axon CEO Rick Smith told. Axon claims one early tester of the tool, Fort Collins Colorado Police Department, has seen an 82% decrease in time spent writing reports.

Smith acknowledged there are dangers. “When people talk about bias in AI, it really is: Is this going to exacerbate racism by taking training data that's going to treat people differently?” he told“When people talk about bias in AI, it really is: Is this going to exacerbate racism by taking training data that's going to treat people differently?”

Daniel Linskey, a former Boston Police Department Superintendent-in-Chief and now head of financial and risk consultancy Kroll’s Boston division, said if police are going to use artificial intelligence for drafting reports, departments will need clearly defined policies, procedures and supervision. “Make sure the audit process is real,” he said. If those rules are followed, AI could be a real time saver, Linskey added, and get more police on the street, rather than in an office doing admin.
