Anyone Use AI in a Forensic Setting?


I've been watching things progress & my mind keeps wondering about the potential for using AI to exonerate the wrongly convicted. Specifically in cases of things like 'Murder by Proxy', where there's a much higher probability that those pulling the strings will have sophisticated deniability tactics in place from which the 'patsy' has no hope of escape.

I know how since as far back as the Gulf war we've had the ability to fly drones 24/7 at altitudes far out of sight to provide the ability to rewind & playback anyone's movements along with anyone/anything they'd have encountered or even had a passing glance at.

My thinking is that if we can feed this to a sufficiently trained AI we could expose deeply-entrenched underground MBP networks which have likely flourished & evolved at the hands of organized crime syndicates for god-only-knows how long now.

I know there's always the concern for civil-rights-type abuse of such machinery, but assuming we're able to protect ourselves from the grey-goo problem, it can be assumed this issue is moot as well.

It's an opaque system that outputs opinion without proof. It's entirely incongruent with law. Honestly, I find the premise dystopian.
