Notes

Creative Loafing Tampa reported on 26 February 2026 that the sheriff's office had announced that day that deputies may now use Axon Draft One to generate preliminary reports, for now only non-criminal reports. Deputies must review and edit the draft and certify that it matches their own account. An Axon product manager said Axon does not store the original AI drafts by design. The article cites the Electronic Frontier Foundation's report 'Axon's Draft One Is Designed to Defy Transparency' and its view that police should not use AI to write reports at all. The sheriff's office said it was looking into its disclosure policy.
