Police in South Fulton plan to incorporate artificial intelligence or AI, which they say is a way to increase efficiency in the department. 

South Fulton recently partnered with the technology company IBM to assist officers with cases in real-time. Police say the new tech is a necessary tool for a new crime center planned for next year.

Brendan O’Neil is the captain of Intelligence and Technology with the police department. He says the AI would work as a predictor of possible crimes.
