We know technological advancements can be terrifying, especially when it comes to law enforcement. Joining us on Adventures in AI is law enforcement leader and retired Chief Joel Shults to discuss technology in law enforcement and the importance of transparency and trust through communication with the public.
Tuning in, you’ll hear all about the focus of law enforcement as it currently stands, how they plan on handling issues they are facing, Chief Shults’s definition of transparency and accountability, why the public needs to be educated and communicated with so relations with law enforcement can improve, and how police departments can work toward better relationships with the people. Chief Shults also shares his opinion about racism in the police force before delving into how dangerous the media can be for law enforcement.
We also discuss how technology aids law enforcement, how to keep the human element of policing around even with the advancing technology, and how we can help people trust in technology. This is an intriguing discussion that is not to be missed!
