Police departments across America use AI to catch criminals online. These digital agents act like real people, talking with suspects through social media platforms. Law enforcement agencies work with Massive Blue, which created the Overwatch system for this purpose. The AI builds relationships with targets to gather evidence without revealing its true nature.

The technology targets serious offenders such as human traffickers. Reports indicate authorities also use these systems against political activists, including college protesters. Massive Blue markets Overwatch to police for several purposes, including school security. The company claims its system helps fight crime effectively. No arrests have been publicly linked to evidence gathered through these AI agents so far.

This growing trend raises ethical questions about police surveillance methods. Many worry about potential overreach when AI tools monitor political speech. Law enforcement continues expanding digital monitoring capabilities despite these concerns. The line between public safety measures might blur as more agencies adopt these technologies. Privacy advocates question whether using fake AI personas crosses important legal boundaries.
