    Researchers at the University of Chicago are developing software to analyze data such as arrest records, court filings, and social services reports to identify patterns that could help predict whether a particular individual might commit a violent crime in the future. The goal is to provide interventions such as job training or counseling to at-risk individuals before they offend in order to help prevent crimes from occurring. However, others have raised concerns about privacy and the potential for the system to unfairly target certain demographics.
