"AI tools are making potentially harmful errors in social work records, from bogus warnings of suicidal ideation to simple “gibberish”, frontline workers have said.

Keir Starmer last year championed what he called “incredible” time-saving social work transcription technology. But research across 17 English and Scottish councils shared with the Guardian has now found AI-generated hallucinations are slipping in.

As scores of local authorities begin to use AI note-takers to accelerate recording and summarisation of meetings with adult and child service users, a seven-month study by the Ada Lovelace Institute found “some potentially harmful misrepresentations of people’s experiences are occurring in official care records”.

The independent thinktank found that one social worker who had used an AI transcription tool to create a summary said the technology had incorrectly “indicated that there was suicidal ideation”, but “at no point did the client actually … talk about suicidal ideation or planning, or anything”."

Every other transcription app is in the storage business. We're in the forgetting business. Your iPhone remembers so the internet doesn't have to.

@easternblot and others: do you inform your sources about or even ask for permission to use the their audio with AI transcription programs?

I haven't used those services yet because it feels weird to hand a recording to a third party. I wish there was reliable self-hosted transcription.

Casual app update via #MacAppStore for #AI-Transcription.

A 5,2 GB update. What the hell am I installing there?

And how does this go through the App vetting process. I mean, I know quality control is a major issue at #Apple but I keep being astonished about their huge and growing list of fuck-ups.

Oh, I think this programmer has similar relationship issues to the others.

What was said: Sometimes these things get picked up

What AI said: Sometimes these things hook up.
