mniraq - FBI Director Kash Patel announced that 6 school shooting incidents in the United States were thwarted using artificial intelligence technologies, noting that the use of this technology has witnessed a significant increase within the agency.
Patel said the agency relied on AI to preempt threats before they occur, specifically through data triage, information gathering, and DNA analysis, revealing a 605% increase in the use of this technology since he took office, to work with partners and review databases away from any political motives.
The FBI Director criticized Democratic Party members for not asking any questions about this technology during a Senate hearing, considering it an unserious behavior, while the bureau continues to enhance its reliance on AI as a crucial tool for triaging threats in schools, despite warnings from tech industry leaders about the risks of its rapid growth.
