China develops AI 'prosecutor' that can identify 'dissent' and press charges for common crimes 'with 97% accuracy'
- The system can press charges for Shanghai's eight most common crimes
- It runs on a standard computer and can take part in decision-making process
- But there are fears the machine could be weaponised by the state
China has developed an artificial intelligence prosecutor that can charge people with crimes with more than 97 per cent accuracy, researchers claim.
The dystopian machine can identify 'dissent' against the state and suggest sentences for supposed criminals, removing people from the prosecution process.
There are already fears the system could be weaponised by the Chinese Communist Party with human prosecutors concerned about who would take responsibility for the AI's decisions.
