Demystifying AI in Criminal Justice

In partnership with the AI and Justice Consortium, John Jay College's Future of Public Safety Initiative is a hosting a webinar series highlighting the role, challenges, implications, and opportunities of the intersection between AI and the criminal legal system.

This webinar series explores how artificial intelligence is shaping key points across the criminal legal system. 

Through focused conversations on key topics such as policing, the judicial system, and incarceration, the series examines both the potential benefits and the risks of emerging technologies in real-world practice. Designed for practitioners, policymakers, researchers, and community stakeholders, these sessions aim to build a shared understanding of how AI can be governed and applied in ways that advance fairness, accountability, and public trust.
