• Resumen

  • Moskvitch talks about automatic policing. Over the past few years, law enforcement agencies have begun replacing human police officers with efficient, all-seeing, algorithms. They watch for crimes using ubiquitous sensors, cameras, facial-recognition software and intelligent computerized analysis. From traffic offences to theft, increasingly it's an algorithm watching out: alerting police, or even dispatching punishment with no human oversight whatsoever. Advocates argue that automated policing cuts cost, frees up resources and ensures wrongdoers do not escape justice.
