AI on Patrol: How Technology is Shaping Law Enforcement Reports
Discover how the Shawnee County Sheriff’s Office is integrating AI into daily operations through Axon’s report-writing platform. By converting spoken narratives into structured reports, this technology reduces administrative time, improves consistency, and keeps more deputies in the field. Attorneys and judges will gain valuable insight into how these AI-generated reports affect accuracy, reliability, and the legal process once they enter the courtroom.
