Michigan prisons to deploy AI that predicts inmates' future violent risk for security classification

Michigan's prison system is preparing to deploy AI that predicts incarcerated people's risk of committing future violent acts, using the results to determine their security classifications, per Polymarket.
The plan raises immediate fairness concerns: model predictions directly feed decisions that restrict people's liberty, making bias and error rates a high-stakes issue.
