LDF Urges NYC to Reject AI Surveillance Expansion in Public Schools
The NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund (LDF) urged New York City officials to reject the expansion of artificial intelligence-powered surveillance and policing within public schools. In testimony presented for a joint oversight hearing, the organization contended that such technology imperils students’ civil rights, privacy, and constitutional protections. LDF further cautioned that these systems disproportionately impact Black, brown, immigrant, and other vulnerable student populations.
