This is a really important concern, thanks for bringing it up. I'd really like to know more about what they are doing in this case to try and combat that. Law enforcement in particular feels like an application where managing bias is extremely important.

I would imagine the risk of bias here is much lower than, for example, the predictive policing systems that are already in use in US police departments. Or the bias involved in ML models for making credit decisions. 🙃
