LASERi-X is a law-enforcement tool used by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police to automatically categorize and classify images and videos that may constitute child sexual exploitation material. The AI pre-qualifies content, and a human investigator reviews and confirms every classification. The AI use is not disclosed to individuals whose images are being processed, and personal information is involved.
