A US prison was able to detect when prisoners were undergoing illegal business by using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning; the prison used software from London based company, Voice to detect odd patterns of conversation. All calls that connect on prison phone lines in the US are recorded and monitored, but it is a very time-consuming and boring job to listen endlessly to thousands of hours of conversations between inmates and their families in order to try to work out if anything nefarious is going on. The system includes a Nvidia GPU that processes words and phrases up to 400 times faster than real time. In this case, it detected an inmate who had been selling marijuana on his cell phone for over two years.
