Last week, we saw AI misuse lead to the early retirement of one Chief Constable. Now, the police reportedly plan to use AI to usher in an era of 'predictive policing', targeting criminals before they commit crimes. This is unbelievably unwise. [...] The use of these sorts of predictive policing algorithms creates a postcode lottery of justice, reinforcing existing biases and inequalities. Infusing those systems with AI will only exacerbate the injustice.

AI Unverifiable A mirrored X copy on TwStalker reproduces the full David Davis MP post, including both quoted passages and the omitted middle text, and contemporaneous reporting repeats the later sentences as David Davis’s remarks on predictive policing; the status ID also decodes to 2026-01-19 UTC, matching the stored date. But I could not directly retrieve the original X status page in this environment, so I cannot fully verify that the supplied source URL itself currently contains the text.

Disputed Mirrored captures attribute the longer X post to David Davis MP (@DavidDavisMP), but they show the opening three sentences, then several intervening sentences, and only later the closing two sentences about a "postcode lottery of justice" and AI exacerbating injustice. Because the supplied version silently removes that middle material instead of marking an omission with [...], it is not verbatim as presented, even though it is based on a real Davis post. A separate roundup also links a David Davis X post on the same point. ([w.twstalker.com](https://w.twstalker.com/Oldgitsville)) · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 19d ago
