Read the article carefully. After reading through one time, re-read the article with the goal of identifying the main idea (claim) that the author is making and the relevant evidence the author uses to make this claim. Do not include your opinion of the author’s claim! Additionally, identify:
Main claim (thesis)
Evidence used to support the claim
Audience
Tone
Methods of Rhetoric (ethos/pathos/logos) used and evidence

Requirements
300-500 words in length
MLA formatting 
typed, double spaced,
11-point font, New Times Roman or Arial font type.
The author and title of the article must be in the first sentence. When citing relevant details, make sure to indicate that this is what the author said.


Objective:
Students will be able to identify the main idea (claim) of an article and use the most relevant evidence from the text used to make the claim. Students will be able to effectively identify the audience, tone, and method of rhetorical appeals.

Purpose of the assignment:
Learning to write an effective summary, allows you to begin to understand rhetorical knowledge and purposeful writing. Additionally, being able to summarize will allow you to start “listening to the conversation” without inserting your own opinion. Reading is another form of listening, so critical reading is also an important component of the course.

This assignment will allow you to practice and demonstrate this ability to “listen” closely by reading critically and identifying the main idea (claim/thesis) of the article and choosing the very best relevant details the author chose to support your ideas in a clear, concise summary.

This skill of being able to summarize is the first step in being able to critically analyze written text.

       What Happens When Police Use AI to Predict and Prevent Crime

	For "What Happens When Police Use AI to Predict and Prevent Crime?" The article says that when cops use AI  to guess where crimes might happen, it often makes things worse. These programs can copy the unfair ways police have treated people in the past. This leads to more people being treated unfairly, especially those who are already often picked on by police. It can also cause more problems with people's rights being ignored.

Biased data leads to more inequality. Apparently Black people are more likely than white people to be reported for committing a crime. Because of this fact neighborhoods that are primarily  Black get labeled as "high risk." Policing goes up, the number of recorded crimes goes up, and then that sends the data even further to show these areas as even higher risk which is unfair to everyone just because of AI.

They also refer to how AI systems can be wrong and unfair. It refers to the trial done in 2018 by the London Metropolitan Police, where, out of 104 identifications by facial recognition, only two were correct. This shows a  high rate of error for AI. It also points out that often. Police departments themselves mostly deny liability for AI failures, when they have little knowledge of how the AI actually works normally.

In conclusion the article is saying that using AI in police work could be really unfair and cause big problems. The writer wants people to understand what it means when police use AI. They're asking for changes to be made and for someone to keep a close eye on how AI is used by the police. The goal is to make sure it is used in a fair way that doesn't hurt people or treat some people or groups worse than others.
