The dreaded law enforcement contractor Axon has pioneered a new software for writing police reports, but critics are wary of its impacts.

Axon, the public safety contractor that popularized the Taser, has launched a new product that is less actively terrifying but still vaguely concerning: an AI-powered software program that lets cops automate their police reports. Axon calls its new product Draft One. According to a press release published on Tuesday, Draft One is a “revolutionary new software product that drafts high-quality police report narratives in seconds.

Daniel Linskey, a former Boston Police Department Superintendent-in-Chief who was also interviewed by the news outlet, similarly urged caution in the tech’s deployment. Problematically, AI has been known to “hallucinate”—that is, to make up gibberish. At the same time, it seems possible that police could—in certain cases—use the software to absolve themselves of legal responsibility.
