  • Criminal Justice & Law Enforcement

    SITIA and Calle Segura

    Chile’s systems described in Chile AI policing systems overview fit criminal justice and law enforcement misuse because they integrate invasive AI practices into policing decisions and surveillance workflows. Systems like SITIA and Calle Segura combine camera networks facial recognition capabilities and data-sharing platforms to support detection of suspects and monitoring of public spaces (although not fully in real-time but policing and incident based). They enable authorities to aggregate and analyze large volumes of data influencing operational responses and policing priorities.
