The i Paper – New “error-riddled” AI tool to be used by the Home Office

Big Brother Watch Team / August 5, 2025

The Government is planning to introduce an AI tool to deal with asylum claims despite serious errors. Jake Hurfurt, head of research and investigations at Big Brother Watch said:

“Outsourcing vital decisions to error-riddled AI tools is a worrying path for the Government to go down. The Government should stop seeking to cut costs with shiny AI tools and instead properly invest in staff.”

The i Paper – Home Office bid to clear asylum backlog led to ‘serious errors’ in 9 per cent of cases
