The UK police department has begun testing an AI system called Soze, developed in Australia. This technology is capable of analyzing decades-old investigations in a matter of hours.
The system scans and analyzes a variety of data sources, including emails, social media accounts, videos, financial records and other documents. According to police, the artificial intelligence was able to process evidence from 27 complex cases in just 30 hours, while it would have taken a human investigator up to 81 years. However, the accuracy of Soze's work raises concerns as AI models can produce incorrect and made-up answers.
Gavin Stevens, chairman of the National Police Chiefs' Council, said that AI could be useful in re-investigating unsolved cases by providing a new perspective on the data collected. He emphasized that Soze does not replace police officers, but only empowers them; the final decisions always remain with humans.
Soze is currently being tested at Avon and Somerset Police Authority, serving parts of South West England. It is planned that similar technology will be introduced into policing practices across the UK in the future.

Harvard students taught Meta smartglasses to collect passersby's personal data
Harvard University students have opened Pandora's Box by connecting Ray-Ban Stories smart glasses to facial recognition and public databases. The result is the ultimate spy device.
They called their invention I-XRAY and conducted “field tests” on strangers. They checked the data they received against the passersby themselves. The glasses found their names, ages, phone numbers and insurance polic
