Artificial intelligence is being used by companies like Axon to assist police officers in reducing the time spent on administrative tasks such as writing reports. While police officers are impressed with the efficiency, legal experts have raised concerns about accuracy, transparency, and potential bias.
An increasing number of companies are stepping up to help police departments ease the burden of administrative tasks with AI tools.
Axon CEO Rick Smith said it is restricted to drafting reports for only minor incidents so agencies can get comfortable with the tool before expanding to more complex cases. Early feedback, he added, indicates that Draft One reduces report-writing time by more than 60%, potentially cutting the average time for report completion from 23 minutes to just 8 minutes.
Though Pitcher and other experts agree that AI in police reporting can offer benefits, it must be used with clear protocols and careful oversight to ensure accuracy. Even so, some members of law enforcement — like Keith Olsen, a retired New York detective and president and CEO of consulting firm KO Solutions & Strategies, which advises police associations — don't see the benefits of using AI for police reports.
