When Commissioner AI Investigates: Between Digital Security and Personal Freedom

Artificial intelligence is changing police work and raises fundamental societal questions. The free online web talk from the series Democracy in Conversation will explore on November 11, 2026, how AI can be used to analyze large volumes of case files, facial recognition, behavior analysis, and the evaluation of digital communication.

Technology with Far-Reaching Possibilities

New analytical methods promise faster investigations and aim to help identify missing persons, better assess risks, or prepare extensive image and data collections for law enforcement. Chat histories and social media content are also coming into focus for modern investigative work.

Where Security Ends and Freedom Begins

Many applications are still in the testing phase. At the same time, legal and ethical questions arise: How can informational self-determination and human dignity be protected? What legal foundations are needed for the use of AI? And how intensively can digital tools be used for increased security without disproportionately limiting freedom rights?
