Police Colonel Hanna Teteriatnyk, head of the Department of Criminal Procedure and Criminalistics at the Odesa State University of Internal Affairs, took part as a member of the Ukrainian delegation in the international conference “Artificial Intelligence in Public Safety. People – Responsibility – Competence,” held at the Police Training Center in Legionowo, Republic of Poland.

The visit was organized by the EU Advisory Mission on Civilian Security Sector Reform in Ukraine, in collaboration with the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine and the State Emergency Service, as part of cooperation on reforms in the field of education and training for law enforcement agencies. The event was attended by representatives of law enforcement agencies, educational and research institutions from Poland, Ukraine, the United Kingdom, Spain, the Netherlands, and Italy, as well as experts from Europol, FRONTEX, and IBM.

The participants discussed the use of artificial intelligence in police work, the limits of automated decision-making, facial recognition, the analysis of criminal case files, digital forensics, cybersecurity, and countering disinformation. They paid particular attention to human accountability for decisions made using algorithms, AI transparency, and training police officers to work with new technologies.

The practical portion of the conference included a simulation of decision-making based on data processed by an artificial intelligence system, followed by an analysis of the legal, ethical, and psychological implications.
