Special Report: Artificial Intelligence and Crime

About this episode

Artificial Intelligence is advancing at an amazing rate. In this special bonus episode, we take a step back from our usual true crime stories to discuss AI as it relates to the world of crime. How is AI helping law enforcement? How is it helping criminals? What new forms of crime are we likely to see enabled by AI? And what is the existential threat posed by AI to humanity and what efforts are underway to avoid catastrophe?
