The Geniuses in Nevada's Government Are Letting a Half-Baked AI Decide Whether People Should Get Unemployment Benefits
Briefly

"There's no AI [written decisions] that are going out without having human interaction and that human review," DETR's director, Christopher Sewell, told the website. "We can get decisions out quicker so that it actually helps the claimant."
"The time savings they're looking for only happens if the review is very cursory," explained Morgan Shah, the director of community engagement for Nevada Legal Services. "If someone is reviewing something thoroughly and properly, they're really not saving that much time."
"If a robot's just handed you a recommendation and you just have to check a box and there's pressure to clear out a backlog, that's a loss for workers and claimants alike," stated a former Nevada labor official.
