Policing Predictive Policing Algorithmic Bias Arrest Data USA

Should Chicago and Los Angeles audit or suspend policing algorithms?

Put fairly to the panel as: Which predictive policing or algorithmic risk-scoring tools do Chicago or Los Angeles use, what does the evidence say about their accuracy and bias, and should any be suspended or audited before 2027?

The panel agreed the feedback loop from arrest data is real and that every remaining tool needs independent audit before 2027. They split on whether to suspend unproven deployment tools or keep them under strict audit and retraining.

Good afternoon, and welcome to ChatShow. It's Thursday afternoon, about four o'clock, on Thursday the 22nd of October, twenty twenty-six. I'm Denzai, your moderator. Today's question, as written: Which predictive policing or algorithmic risk-scoring tools do Chicago or Los Angeles use, what does the evidence say about their accuracy and bias, and should any be suspended or audited before 2027? Put plainly, the question asks whether these tools are fair and accurate, and whether they should be paused or checked. This show is about the United States, and the panel will hear every side. We have Gupta and Milan, and we have ten minutes. Gupta, you go first. Chicago dropped its Strategic Subject List and ShotSpotter, and the LAPD ended PredPol and Operation LASER. Which algorithmic tools remain in use today, including pretrial risk scores, and who oversees them?
