    1. Legally, police officers can’t strike. But they can “work-to-rule,” doing only the most necessary duties.

      Yet we see this all the times, police officers taking course of their own actions and doing what they want. We saw this in the Geroge Floyd incident which officers took serious aggression without any harmful intent from Mr. Floyd. I think after that incident however, officers were more tamed given they recognized the amount of blacklashing the officers in the incident got.

    2. Proactive policing also disrupts communal life, which can drain social control of group-level violence.

      Proactive policing can disrupt communal life by increasing surveillance and law enforcement presence, which may weaken trust and cooperation within communities. The social bonds can undermine informal social controls that lead to worse results.

    1. judicial artificial intelligence is still limited to acting as an assistant to the decision-making of the legal person in practice, which is only suitable to be an assistant to the judge and can not completely replace the judge.

      I believe that artificial intelligence should definitely be used to help guide decisions and provide certain information. There are still may flaws within artificial intelligence and we know based on other experiences with artificial intelligence that they can create mindsets of their own which can then lead to not reducing bias but increasing it, providing incorrect information towards jurors and twisting their minds.

    2. judicial artificial intelligence also has its inherent limits. It is not easy for algorithmic decision-making to achieve absolute objectivity and precision,

      With different jurors having many opinions and biases that create certain decisions, it makes sense how artificial intelligence cannot make absolute decisions. Now what if majority of jurors were able to join together to create a single mindset. Would that create a system where bias is almost diminished?

    3. some artificial intelligence in judicial practice has shown better accuracy than the prediction accuracy of human judges.

      How do we create artificial intelligence to bypass the bias system when we create it. Artificial intelligence needs a certain mindset to think off of and us humans creating it provides input into the artificial intelligence system.
