This “protesting in college” is not real. This is a secret -powered AI bot for cops

June 5 The meeting of the Pinal County Supervision Council was asked to approve the agreement with a value of USD 500,000 between the county and the huge blue for a license for Overwatch.

“I looked at the website for a massive blue and it is one -sided without additional information and no links,” said Kevin Cavanaugh, then Supervisor for District 1, said to the main deputy of Pinal Pinal in Sheriff’s office, Matthew Thomas. “They produce the software that we buy, and what does it do? Can you explain it to us?”

“I can’t go into details because they are basically trade secrets and I don’t want to tip my hand to bad guys,” said Thomas. “But I can tell you that the software aims to help our investigators in search, find and build matters about human trafficking, drug trafficking and weapon trade.”

Cavanaugh said at a board meeting that the basic information he received is that the huge blue uses “50 bots AI”. Then he asked if the software was successful and whether he helped law enforcement agencies to arrest any arrest. Thomas explained that they had not yet made any arrests, because they only saw the proof of the concept, but that the proof of the concept was “good enough for us and our investigators to reconcile with this. After approval and we receive them [Massive Blue] As part of the contract, we intend to move on with prosecution of matters. “

Cavanaugh asked if Overwatch was used in other poviats, which prompted Thomas to invite Clema to the podium to speak. Clem introduced himself as a recently retired border agent and said that the huge blue is currently in negotiations with three poviats in Arizona, including Pinal.

“As a resident of the 14 years of Pinal, I know what is going on here,” said Clem to the supervisory board. “To be able to [to] Use this program […] To provide all necessary information to go after using children, victims of human trafficking and all other industries that the sheriff may want to go. “

Cavanaugh again asked if the huge blue collected any data that led to the arrest.

“We have not yet arrested, but currently there is a current investigation into arson and we have received potential customers for investigators,” said Clem, explaining that the program has been busy for about six months. “Investigations take some time, but we were able to generate the necessary potential customers for specific poviats with whom we are involved, as well as in the private sector.”

Pinal County Supervisors has completed the stock exchange, approving the payment for a handful of other, not related to unrelated projects, but members of the board are asking for delay in voting on payment for mass blue “for further research”.

The decision not to finance a huge blue one that day was covered Local newspaper. Cavanaugh told the newspaper that he asked the company to meet his superiors to clarify the advantages of the software.

“Arizona’s state provided a subsidy, but money from subsidies is taxpayers’ money. Regardless of the source of financing, the fight against human and sexual trafficking is too important to risk half a million dollars on unverified technology,” he said. “If the company shows that it can provide evidence to arrest human trade, it can be profitable. However, it has not yet achieved this goal.”
