Why is this important? The police say AI will make us safer. The truth? It automates injustice and racism. Predictive policing tools don’t predict crime — they predict policing. Built on flawed police data, they target the same communities that have always been over-policed: Black and racialised people, low-income neighbourhoods, and migrants. This leads to: • Over-policing • Unjust stop and searches • Harassment, handcuffing, and use of force against targeted people We all deserve safety, not surveillance.
