Special Chief Officer James Deller of the Metropolitan Police is suspended after an AI monitoring tool flagged “sexual content” on his work phone, according to multiple reports. The allegations relate to software provided by US technology company Palantir, which is used to review content on police devices. The reporting says Deller is one of more than 100 officers who are referred or flagged by the system following its rollout. The articles describe the Palantir tool as controversial, and they link officer referrals to the introduction of the monitoring capability within the Met. Details about the scope of the review, how the system determines what content is “sexual,” and the specific next steps for any investigation are not provided in the excerpts. The reports indicate that Deller’s suspension follows the flagging of content on his device and that other officers have also been referred as part of the same monitoring process. Overall, the coverage centers on the suspension, the officer’s identity, and the role of Palantir-linked AI in triggering referrals.
