A society can be declared as a safe entity only when there is a strategy for achieving ‘zero crime rate’ status. Ever since the origin of crime, a system existed to pursue the criminal. What started as a human being using his intellectual and theoretical skills to investigate later developed with the assistance he received using technologies. But with the constant technological advancements, a recent innovation is said to bring in a whole lot of revolution and perspective change in the field of preventing crimes. Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) is an improvised version of Artificial Intelligence (AI) that is designed in such a way that it could represent human cognitive abilities based on its software. Being still a theoretical system, this is believed to perform its tasks in such an acclaimed way that it is difficult to differentiate between artificial intelligence and that of a normal human being. Unlike commonly used artificial intelligence, these have self-thinking abilities and understanding capabilities that could aid in criminal investigation as well as in the prevention of crime. The proposed features of artificial general intelligence can detect any peculiar unusuality, and sense danger even before the occurrence of any happenings thus being beneficial to the society in restoring its peace. The application of the AGI is never limited but can be witnessed in any kind of situation including real day-to-day happenings on virtual social platforms. Understanding the characteristics of artificial general intelligence, and putting it to apt use can create a crime-free society for the future.
