Question

After a series of small explosions in Delhi markets, the city police proposed installing AI-based surveillance cameras across public areas. According to officials, this system will allow early detection of suspicious activities and thereby prevent future terror incidents. Critics, however, warn that such monitoring could lead to privacy violations without necessarily improving safety. Which of the following is an assumption implicit in the police’s argument that AI based surveillance will prevent future terror incidents?

The argument depends on assuming that AI cameras can accurately detect suspicious behaviour in real time.

A All potential attackers can be visually identified before they commit the act.

B The AI-based surveillance system can accurately detect unusual human behaviour in real time.

C Citizens will willingly sacrifice some privacy for the sake of greater public security.

D Terror incidents in the city primarily occur in areas that can be covered by surveillance cameras.

E Existing manual monitoring methods are completely ineffective in preventing such incidents.
