AI writing police reports can allow officers to avoid responsibility for said reports

One concern of AI is the ability to abdicate (maybe even say, 'obfuscate') responsibility

Police commissioners ensure that LE officers have #qualifiedimmunity across the US.

An extraordinarily important legal decision just dropped, and no one is talking about it

“It has received scant media attention, but it is a very big deal.

Reeves calls on the #SupremeCourt to acknowledge its mistake and eliminate the doctrine of qualified immunity entirely.”
