Met investigates officers via Palantir AI

The London Metropolitan Police is reportedly using Palantir's AI platform to investigate hundreds of its own officers. The move signals an aggressive shift toward automated internal governance and "zero-trust" policing using big-data analytics.

// ANALYSIS

Palantir’s pivot from hunting terrorists to auditing police officers marks a major escalation in domestic AI surveillance. The use of Palantir Gotham or AIP for internal affairs suggests the Met is connecting disparate data points to flag suspicious behavioral patterns. Investigating "hundreds" of officers indicates either a massive corruption backlog or a sensitive AI trigger threshold with high false-positive potential. This sets a precedent for the "AI as Boss" era, where proprietary algorithms dictate disciplinary actions without transparent oversight. Civil liberties groups will likely target the lack of public scrutiny regarding the specific logic Palantir uses to categorize officer behavior.
