🚨New law could allow machine-made policing decisions to be made based on postcode data or even INFERRED EMOTIONS

We've brought together 30 rights groups & academics to warn against AI-powered automation in policing

"Labour’s copy-and-paste Conservative Data Bill will open the floodgates to robo-policing with fewer safeguards and less transparency.

The expansion of machine-made law enforcement decisions will only deepen the existing biases in the criminal justice system, putting marginalised groups at greater risk of opaque and discriminatory outcomes.

In the high stakes context of policing and criminal justice, which affect our fundamental rights, we must resist a Kafkaesque future of secret police decisions with no path to redress.

As the Bill rushes towards its final stages, MPs should oppose the weakening of vital safeguards protecting us from unchecked automated police decision-making."
