Does automated feedback impact the acceptability of AI-generated police body worn camera review? An implementation science natural experiment.

ABSTRACT: The diffusion of innovations in policing has often been hindered by barriers to implementation and officer acceptance, which can derail an innovation regardless of its validity or effectiveness. Implementation Science (IS) is a useful lens for addressing such concerns because IS empirically examines the way a new technology or strategy is deployed, and it offers insights on barriers, facilitators, and fidelity. The present study uses an IS framework to investigate one of the latest innovations in policing: Artificial Intelligence (AI). In early 2024, two Arizona police departments deployed Truleo, an AI-driven body-worn camera review platform, via randomized controlled trials, but only one of those departments used a feature of Truleo that sends automated positive feedback emails to office
