This is the fourth industrial revolution whereas all sectors would venture into using artificial intelligence. Regardless of the sector, crime will be found
one way or another in any profession and job function. The crime committed could involve manpower or technology and could be discovered and managed by using the same.
All sectors use AI as a device for either machine learning or machine doing, be it for hard or software technology that identify issues and send messages
to manpower on the ground, or in the controlling of robotics or drones.
Furthermore, there is machine learning incident or investigation software that is data recording, analysing the data to send messages or could possibly analyse the data by building relationship bridges and that could flag incidents of concern (machine doing).
