Show HN: Helix – India's AI and Neurotech Framework for Predictive Public Safety

1 points by Chakrabarti 2 days ago

I’ve been working on HELIX, a conceptual security framework that aims to tackle crime, terrorism, and exploitation using AI, behavioral analytics, DNA-Aadhaar fusion, and a forward-looking roadmap for non-invasive neural signal analysis. Unlike traditional law enforcement models, HELIX is built around predictive intelligence—detecting high-risk behaviors and threats before they escalate. Core elements include: • AI-driven behavioral tracking in geo-fenced zones • DNA-Aadhaar ID fusion for high-precision identification • ExposeHub, a citizen-facing app for real-time, verified reporting • A proposed Neuro-ID Surveillance layer (aspirational, non-invasive) for long-term evolution • A governance-first approach: ethics, "neural rights", and transparent oversight are baked in from the start While still in conceptual stages, the proposal outlines legal frameworks, pilot deployment models, and ethical safeguards (e.g., anti-bias audits, no social scoring). We're aiming for a system that is both technologically ambitious and ethically grounded. The full whitepaper is available: Desci Nodes with a novelty content score of 95%. We’d love feedback from the HN community—especially around: • Feasibility and limits of predictive neural tech • How to responsibly fuse personal identifiers (like DNA + biometrics) • Ways to prevent misuse or drift into authoritarian surveillance Ask Me Anything — thoughts, concerns, critiques all welcome.
