TK MILAB AI and Law Series - AI and Algorithms in criminal justice: possibilities and ethical limits considering the case of Spain
In recent years, not only has the use of Artificial Intelligence in the police and criminal justice fields increased, but concern about this use of tools has also grown significantly, extending to other algorithms that were previously used to support decision-making of the police and judges. This is what our next, English presentation is about.
In the paper, we will analyze what is meant when we use terms such as algorithmic justice or predictive sentencing, we will try to describe the main types of tools already existing in this field and we will analyze the possibilities of their use and their ethical risks, paying special attention to attention to some of those already used in criminal justice in Spain, particularly Viogen, for police use, and RisCanvi, for prison use.
Presenter: Fernando Miró-Llinares (Professor of Criminal Law and Criminology, Director of Criminal Research Center for Crime Prevention, Elche, Spain)
