Argentina’s security forces have announced plans to use artificial intelligence to “predict future *******” in a move experts have warned could threaten citizens’ rights.

The country’s far-right president Javier Milei this week created the

Unit, which the legislation says will use “machine-learning algorithms to analyse historical ****** data to predict future *******”. It is also expected to deploy facial recognition software to identify “wanted persons”, patrol social media, and analyse real-time security camera footage to detect suspicious activities.

While the ministry of security has said the new unit will help to “detect potential threats, identify movements of ********* groups or anticipate disturbances”, the ********* Report-esque resolution has sent alarm bells ringing among

Experts ***** that certain groups of society could be overly scrutinised by the technology, and have also raised concerns over who – and how many security forces – will be able to access the information.

The latest measure has prompted an especially strong reaction in a country with a dark history of state repression; an estimated 30,000 people were forcibly disappeared during its brutal 1976-83 dictatorship, some thrown alive from planes on so-called “****** flights”. Thousands were also tortured, and hundreds of children kidnapped.

A ministry of security source said that the new unit will work under the current legislative framework, including the Personal Information Protection Act mandate. It added that it will concentrate in applying AI, data analytics and machine learning to identify ********* patterns and trends in the ministry of security databases.
