Which agency regulates the use of AI in your jurisdiction?
- At this time, there is no formal agency charged with the responsibility of regulating the use of AI in the USVI. However, the Government of the Virgin Islands established a real-time centralized crime data system within the Territory's police department using AI. https://www.ncsl.org/technology-and-communication/artificial-intelligence-2024-legislation
- The Real-Time Crime Center is governed by Title 3, Chapter 15, Section 263(a). The statute requires that the crime center must be equipped with the following technology:
i. (1) Gunshot detection technology;
ii. (2) Surveillance camera network;
iii. (3) Automated license plate reading;
iv. (4) Fingerprint technology; and
v. Automated Criminal records including complaints, arrests, convictions, juvenile records, and facial recognition capability.
