🚫 Microsoft Restricts AI Use by US Police Departments
Microsoft has updated its Azure OpenAI Service policy to prohibit U.S. police departments from using its generative AI technologies. This move addresses concerns about potential biases and inaccuracies, such as those highlighted following Axon's announcement of a new product utilizing OpenAI’s GPT-4 for summarizing body camera audio. The revised terms also globally ban real-time facial recognition tech in uncontrolled environments by law enforcement. The policy adjustments reflect ongoing debates around AI ethics and law enforcement's use of such technologies.
