rafidainscope - FBI Director Kash Patel announced that artificial intelligence techniques were used to thwart 6 school shooting incidents in the United States, noting that the use of this technology has seen a significant increase within the agency.
Patel said the agency relied on AI to preempt threats before they occur, specifically through data sorting, information gathering, and DNA analysis, revealing that the use of this technology has increased by 605% since he took office, to work with partners and review databases away from any political motives.
The FBI director criticized Democratic Party members for not raising any questions about this technology during a Senate hearing, considering such behavior unserious, while the bureau continues to enhance its reliance on AI as a critical tool for sorting threats
in schools, despite warnings from technology industry leaders about the risks of its rapid growth.
