This bill mandates that the Attorney General of New Jersey conduct a study on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) technology by law enforcement agencies specifically for generating police reports. The Attorney General is required to issue a report to the Governor and the Legislature within six months of the bill's effective date. The report must include an assessment of the available AI technology for this purpose, a statewide summary of current AI usage in law enforcement for generating police reports, and recommendations for a statewide policy governing the use of AI technology by both state and local law enforcement agencies.
Additionally, the bill stipulates that the recommended policy must ensure that a law enforcement officer reviews any AI-generated police report to verify its accuracy and completeness before it is officially issued. This requirement aims to maintain the integrity of police reports while exploring the potential benefits of AI technology in law enforcement practices.
