Key bits:
The report referenced a match between Maccabi Tel Aviv and West Ham that never happened - pressed by MPs last week, Chief Constable Craig Guildford insisted that the force “do not use AI”, instead blaming a Google search
In an earlier appearance at the Home Affairs Committee, he had blamed “social media scraping” for the incorrect information
However, in a letter to the Home Affairs Select Committee released today he admits the mistake was the “result of a use of Microsoft Co Pilot” - an AI tool
Potentially lying to parliament committes should come with perjury charges. AI slop will mysteriously dissapear at that stage
It is perjury, but… It’s complicated. . Essentially it may be legally impossible to guarantee a fair trial held in Parliament, while the Bill of Rights prevents parliamentary offences being tried in external courts. Standard for British governance.
It should do, but AI slop is everywhere.
The decision to ban away fans from this game is starting to look more and more incompetent. I have no idea if it was the correct decision, and I don’t trust the judgement of the people who made that decision. Clearly they did not do adequate investigation.
During the uproar, they had a match abandoned just before kickoff due to pyrotechnics in the crowd and rioting. It was a pretty good decision.
Dunno why they needed to make up stuff with AI. Plenty of evidence from last year in amsterdam.
Certain professions should be banned from using AI until the underlying model no longer hallucinates(I.e. is not based on LLM). Namely civil servants and any legal or law adjacent profession. We can’t afford to have civic life controlled by buggy software. There’s a new Post Office type scandal brewing here.
