Alberta Police Adopt AI Tools For Policing

Alberta police services are increasingly adopting artificial intelligence in 2024–2025, deploying Microsoft Copilot and Axon tools to support report writing, transcription, analytics, and body-camera features. Calgary reports about 800 employees using Copilot, Tsuut'ina Nation Police uses Axon's Draft One for draft reports, and Edmonton will trial Axon facial-recognition on up to 50 officers in a limited 2025 pilot. Officials emphasize governance, supervisor review, and human oversight to address hallucinations, privacy concerns, and demographic bias.
