Abstract

This study examines the impact of artificial intelligence applications in criminal investigations on regional criminal offences, based on data from 31 provinces in China between 2011 and 2022. Empirical results indicate that the application of artificial intelligence in criminal investigations can significantly reduce regional criminal offences. Furthermore, digital financial development plays a moderating role in the relationship between the application of artificial intelligence in criminal investigations and regional criminal offences, with this moderating effect exhibiting heterogeneity across different regions. The influence of artificial intelligence applications in criminal investigations on regional criminal offences also shows heterogeneity in various regions.
