The AI component of the United Healthcare story is remarkably telling. United Healthcare implemented AI systems that doubled their denial rate for post-acute care. NYPD then boasted about using AI on their manhunt for Mangione, who was found by a random McDonalds employee.

I’d be very grateful if anyone who comes across this could take part in my final year study.

Participation lasts around 10 minutes, and you can opt into a prize draw, with a chance to win a £25 Amazon voucher.
