According to a Guardian investigation, government officials in the UK are using artificial intelligence (AI) and complex algorithms to help decide everything from who gets benefits to who should be granted a marriage license.

The findings shed light on the haphazard and often uncontrolled way in which the latest technology is being used across Whitehall.

Civil servants in at least eight Whitehall departments and a handful of police forces are using AI in a range of areas, but particularly when it comes to helping them make decisions on welfare, immigration and justice criminal, the investigation shows.

The Guardian has uncovered evidence that some of the tools being used have the potential to produce discriminatory outcomes, such as:

-An algorithm used by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) which an MP believes mistakenly led to dozens of people being stripped of their benefits.

-A facial recognition tool used by the Metropolitan police has been found to make more mistakes in recognizing black faces than white faces under certain conditions.

-An algorithm used by the Home Office to flag fake marriages that disproportionately selected people of certain nationalities.

Artificial intelligence is typically "trained" on a large set of data and then analyzes that data in ways that even those who developed the tools sometimes don't fully understand.

If the data shows evidence of discrimination, experts warn, the AI ​​tool is likely to lead to discriminatory results as well.

The NHS has used AI in a number of contexts, including during the Covid pandemic, when officials used it to help identify at-risk patients who should be advised to protect themselves.

The Home Office said it used artificial intelligence for e-gates to read passports at airports, help with the submission of passport applications and in its "fake marriage triage tool", which flags potential fake marriages for investigation. further.

An internal Home Office assessment seen by the Guardian shows that the tool disproportionately targets people from Albania, Greece, Romania and Bulgaria. / Full article
