I sort of see why UHC would go in this direction. Case law (as in understand it) around AI and algorithms is that they can't be ~~blamed~~ held accountable on how they make decisions. Because they are black boxes, they are given a pass.
When a human reviews and denies a claim, it can be scrutinized, making it possible for the human to be reviewed and discredited. And a human might even gasp approve a case.
When it's AI, it can't be reviewed. It can be blamed, but with no responsibility, it can't be sued.
We really need more regulation around algorithms and AI or more shit like this is going to happen.
Edit: wording
But AI is a tool, it's like saying you can't sue the gun I shot you with so you just need to suck it up.
Well if our legal system gonna be like that, then parasitic executive culture will chimp out.
They used algos for fixing rent for a decade and are still doing. Government barely lift a finger to fix it and I bet we will keep getting fucked for another decade
This is just how the country is being ran... We need to accept it and go in opposition
Hold up, algorithms are just simple “if else” trees, nothing more and technically can easily be reviewed. AI is a black box where an apples to apples review is impossible.
