One contentious area of this technological application is in the criminal justice system, where AI/ML is used as a recommendation or decision-making support tool. These applications are particularly popular in the United States of America (USA), the nation with the highest rate of incarceration and correctional budget, to aid in managing overcrowded and overspending facilities.
