Which part is "predicting the DA's decision" in a police officer's job description? Why hasn't it been replaced by ML?

For a different analogy, at a startup, the pm changes the requirements every so often, therefore the engineers are fine to play foosball all day?

It's not about predicting the DA's decision, it's about enforcing the current laws that were decided upon by the people.

The problem was the DA was letting people off even though they were breaking said laws.

You're presuming the outcome of the charge. DAs often don't prosecute because the arrest or paperwork is deficient and the case won't stand up in court.
