Incidente 738: El algoritmo del Departamento de Trabajo y Pensiones (DWP) señala erróneamente a 200.000 personas por fraude en prestaciones de vivienda

Traducido por IA
Descripción:
Traducido por IA
Un algoritmo del Departamento de Trabajo y Pensiones (DWP) marcó erróneamente más de 200.000 solicitudes de prestaciones de vivienda en el Reino Unido como de alto riesgo, lo que dio lugar a investigaciones innecesarias. Dos tercios de estas solicitudes marcadas eran legítimas, lo que provocó un desperdicio de fondos públicos y estrés para los solicitantes. A pesar del éxito inicial en una prueba piloto, el rendimiento del algoritmo en la práctica fue deficiente. Este incidente pone de manifiesto los riesgos de una dependencia excesiva de los sistemas automatizados en la administración de la asistencia social.
