The plot reminds me of that futurama episode where Fry becomes a cop and the cops use a robot that can simulate the future to stop a crime before it's happened.
It was a really funny episode, if they took it as inspiration I think it will be a killer plot for a game. I mean even Isaac Asimov's short stories hinged on AI being unpredictable by humans. (Although, in his stories some of the AI actually worked well) But I just know that that's not what they have in mind here and I have no hope of someone using AI properly, in its natural domain (ie Sci-fi)
That was a parody of minority report. You should check it out if you haven't.
Also if you are into anime, you should check out psychopass which covers a similar theme.
