A peer-reviewed study published in May 2025 examines the integration of artificial intelligence and predictive analytics in biometric surveillance systems for law enforcement and violence prevention. The research analyses facial recognition and predictive policing models’ accuracy in determining violence, whilst addressing ethical concerns regarding privacy, bias, and civil liberties. The study notes that over 2,000 US law enforcement agencies regularly utilise AI technology including biometric surveillance, yet less than 30% of Americans are aware of technologies such as facial recognition or license plate readers. More than 10 million households have incorporated personal home AI devices like Ring doorbell cameras, which law enforcement accesses as part of broader public surveillance networks.
