SUMMARY:‘Responsible AI Futures’ Hybrid Seminar – Dr Claire Paterson-Young
DESCRIPTION:Ethical review to support Responsible Artificial Intelligence (AI) in policing: A preliminary study of West Midlands Police’s specialist data ethics review committee\n  \nBook your hybrid ticket now!\n\n\nThe deployment of AI by the police\, while promising more effective use of data for the prevention and detection of crime\, brings with it considerable threats of disproportionality and interference with fundamental rights. The West Midlands Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner (WMOPCC) and West Midlands Police (WMP) Ethics Committee aims to bridge the gap between ethical reflection\, scientific rigour\, and a focus on human rights\, thus contributing to responsible AI in policing. This seminar explores findings from an interdisciplinary research project that examined the impact and influence of the Committee\, including: \n\nDeveloping an understanding within the police of key ethical\, scientific\, legal and operational issues for planning and implementation.\nEmbedding genuine representation from the community that the police serve in ethical oversight committees to ensure opportunities for transparent engagement.\nImportance of explaining clearly how AI will be used in policing\, so as to enable potential benefits\, risks/harms and proportionality to be assessed in the same conversation.\nNeed for Police forces\, Police and Crime Commissioners and national bodies embarking on AI-driven policing to address the ethical\, legal and technical questions raised by policing AI\, such as reconciling privacy and security priorities relevant to the assessment of the proportionality of using suspect data.\n\n\n\n\n\nBio\nClaire Paterson-Young (BA MSc PhD) is an Associate Professor & Research Leader at the Institute for Social Innovation and Impact (ISII).
