Is it legal for cops to use AI to scan your social media? Short answer to this question is yes, they can use AI in their pursuit against you to charge you with a crime. So, if you've got information on your social media that incriminates you, you're just stupid. Why are you putting that stuff in a DM thinking nobody's ever going to see it? And it's going to get worse. Like we're at the very lowest rung of how AI is going to affect police investigations. They barely even scratched the surface of what they can do. So, you need to be ready for that.
