Abstract
This chapter offers some brief thoughts about what the future may hold for the procedures that figure centrally in the book, and discusses implications beyond the the nuts-and-bolts problem of forecasting criminal behavior. A key topic is actuarial justice and several associated trends. There are also some brief observations about “black-box” forecasting tools, the future of criminal justice research, and something one might call “dark structure.”
