Story summary

Deputy Director Christopher Raia of the FBI says that the agency is using artificial intelligence (AI) to identify threats and fight crime more efficiently. According to Raia, AI has helped reduce the time from receiving a tip to taking action in the field from weeks to just hours or even minutes. The FBI has been targeting transnational criminal organizations and drug cartels, which Raia credits as part of the reason for a recent decline in violent crime rates across the US, including a 20-year low in murder rate in 2025.
