Haywood Talcove, the CEO of LexisNexis Risk Solutions' government division, told Fox News Digital that he believes there will be more than $1 trillion in artificial intelligence-assisted fraud if U.S. doesn't act quickly. America's spending on artifical intelligence in public safety is projected to increase from $9.3 billion in 2022 to $71 billion by 2030, according to a new analysis by the Insight Partners research firm. The projected seven-year boom is expected to be fueled by global and domestic terrorism, a growing need for security training and rising public safety demands coming out of the pandemic, the study says. "From emergency response to disaster prevention, AI has the potential to revolutionize the way we manage crises and protect our communities," according to the study. "Through advanced algorithms, machine learning and predictive analytics, AI can help first responders and public safety officials make more informed decisions, respond more quickly to emergencies and even prevent disasters from occurring in the first place."

Twitter CEO Elon Musk provides insight on the consequences of developing artificial intelligence and the potential impact on elections. Rapidly developing artificial intelligence technology may have prevented the Boston Marathon bombing, but it might also become law enforcement's newest nightmare. That was the message from Ed Davis, who was Boston's police commissioner during the deadly terrorist attack on April 15, 2013. A decade after that plot that killed three people and injured hundreds, he told Fox News Digital that AI "will ultimately improve investigations and allow many dangerous criminals to be brought to justice." "Use of artificial intelligence systems applied to secret and top-secret databases could very well have prevented the Boston Marathon bombing," he said.

BOSTON – In the five years since the Boston Marathon bombing, medical science has made promising advances in amputations and artificial limbs, in part because of lessons learned from the victims and research dollars made available as a result of the attack. Some of the 17 people who lost limbs in the April 15, 2013, bombing could, like many other amputees, benefit from these developments, since many are coming to a crossroads in their treatment. A number still struggle with pain, and others may be looking to replace their prostheses, which are approaching the end of their useful life. "The collective experience in the aftermath of the Boston Marathon bombing was a very positive one in the medical community because there was a lot of crosstalk between military and civilian surgeons," said Dr. Benjamin Potter, chief of orthopedics at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Maryland, where three survivors were treated and doctors are attempting some of the cutting-edge procedures. "That exchange and that dialogue has been one of the silver linings to have come out of this, in that we're hopefully better educated and better prepared for the next one."

A security robot is shooing away homeless people from outside smart office buildings as it patrols the streets of San Francisco. The non-profit organisation that occupies the office block has been warned by officials they will be fined $1,000 (£750) a day if they continue to use the robot without a permit. The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) say the security robot - dubbed K9 - was hired to deal with the growing amounts of crime related to homeless people on the sidewalks. The crime-fighting robots rely on cameras, Lidar, thermal-imaging to navigate the streets. Laser scanning can detect changes in an environment, while odour detectors can also detect other changes in the area and monitor air pollution.
