Michel Fournier-Simard听teaches in Dawson鈥檚 Political Science Department since January 2020. He is currently completing his Ph.D. at McGill University, where he specializes in algorithmic policing. His dissertation titled 鈥淭he Politics of AI: the Case of Canadian Policing鈥� focuses on Predictive Policing in Vancouver, Automatic Licence Plate Readers in Montreal, and AI-Induced Body-Worn Cameras.
As the police enact the State monopoly of legitimate violence over a given territory, the way it engages with technological innovations to enhance this power - or not -, and how society responds, are crucial dynamics illustrative of the challenges AI poses for policymakers. When engaging with algorithmic policing, services must identify which products or services provide the best balance between optimized technical capacities and cost efficiency, while developing use policies addressing privacy, inequality, and unaccountability concerns. Michel dives into the sensemaking of police policy leaders, and the political consequences of their decisions.
Michel holds an MD degree in Comparative Political Sociology (Sciences Po - Paris), and a B.S. in Political Science & History. His doctoral research was notably supported by the Wolfe Chair in Scientific and Technological Literacy and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada.
