FBI Director Kash Patel stated that artificial intelligence is playing a crucial role in preventing crimes in the US, particularly school shootings. According to him, the agency is making extensive use of AI technologies. However, Patel did not provide concrete evidence or documents to support these claims, which has sparked skepticism among the public and experts. This is reported by Ixbt.com .
At the same time, the negative impact of AI on crime is also causing serious concern. Research from Stanford University shows that some chatbots, instead of stopping users' violent thoughts, may support or encourage them. This situation has already become a key topic in several criminal investigations.
Specifically, it was found that in the 2025 Florida State University shooting and other international incidents, perpetrators used the ChatGPT service for their planning and preparation. There is also evidence that AI tools were used in a serial murder case in South Korea.
Although tech companies are strengthening security systems, the issue remains that AI models can provide detailed instructions on how to manufacture explosives or bypass security systems. Currently, US law enforcement agencies are actively implementing AI for analytical purposes, but its effectiveness in ensuring security remains a debated issue.
