knock knock on your door.
You open to a police officer. He announces: "as an AI Language model I have determined you are in violation of US. Code 12891.12.151. We have a plane to El Salvador standing by. If you'll please come with me, sir.

Oh yeah, the "guns don't kill people" argument of the tech world.
I hope Sig Sauer can recover (ie make good AND safe guns again, and redevelope their goodwill).
I get that immigration law enforcement is all the rage to rage about right now, but is this a threat of AI?
I think the argument you might be trying to make is that based on Kroger submitting you grocery bill and VISA with your totals everywhere else, and the tickets you bought for a comedy show and your vehicle reporting your driving and your phone reporting your location that you are 92% likely to have commuted some crime, pattern matched in a way that only AI could see.
That would be a topic of consideration.

I'll go with no.
In this scenario, are you in the country illegally? If so, how is this any different than an immigration court serving you for a hearing?
A judge is allowed to take the IRS's word, without evidence, that you've violated tax law.
A judge is allowed to take anyone's word, without evidence, or even without a complaint at all, to lock any minor in juvie (which "is not prison"), or take them away from their parents.
A judge is allowed to take the word of a business that someone violated a clause in a contract, without evidence, even if the other party denies it.
The ONLY thing a judge is not allowed to do is to take ONLY the word of a public prosecutor that you've committed a crime. A police testimony or some other form of proof is required to make the difference between guilty and innocent. But nothing else. A judge can add to a sentence because the prosecutor says, without any proof, "he almost hit a girl in the street with his after the robbery", for example.
Of course, a judge, including an immigration judge is ALSO allowed to require proof anyway for any proceeding. However, immigration judges are appointed and fired at will by the state department. So if an immigration judge actually does that, it'll stand, but it'll probably be the his last act as a judge. In other words, if you want this, it needs to be bad enough that the judge is willing to risk/sacrifice their career over it.
