The machines that will predict the criminals of the future

The Ministry of Justice will deploy machine learning to identify at-risk children for early intervention and to help prevent them falling into a life of crime

Artificial intelligence (AI) could be used to predict the criminals of the future under government plans to identify children who need targeted interventions to stop them falling into a life of crime.

A programme launched by the Ministry of Justice last week will aim to develop a system that can alert schools, health staff, police and other professionals to individuals most likely to be drawn into crime.

It will identify children most likely to be drawn to crime by using existing data that is currently siloed between different government departments and authorities.


Oh yea this sounds dandy.
