AI & its associated technologies are having clear & consequential effects, yet they no doubt will allow Home Office officials to escape censure for lying & misrepresentation;

'it was the machine what done it, M'lud'.

Court's will need to be more sceptical of HO claims from now on!

The consequences should be the obvious ones:
Fire the people who worked on that case, and their bosses all the way up.
And the asylum seeker gets a citizenship as a thank you for helping find this deep rot in the system.

It isn't analogous. It is congruent.
That should be expensive, as well as the criminal or contempt consequences to whoever sent the evidence.
AIUI there will have been a statement of truth, and some natural person signed it.

‘It states that in 2018 exemptions were made granting 40,000 child marriages, one-fifth of the total marriages that year. It adds that Morocco’s laws do not explicitly criminalise marital rape and that women who report this may be criminalised for engaging in sex outside marriage if they are disbelieved by the authorities.’

Doesn’t sound like even the Tories who were in charge at the time rated Morocco.

Maybe I am tired or hallucinating…but is the gist of this story that the Home Office can completely ignore the testimony of a woman fleeing a country where she was made a child bride and raped and feared being killed by her convicted criminal husband if she went back there because they thought they had a a document (that only exists in AI make believe land) which claims everything is hunky dory in said country. Only the real document says it’s not…

It will certainly ease the pressure on the police when they just need to arrest the usual suspects and press the "Manufacture Evidence" button.
