All cases represent use of semi- and fully automated decision-systems that are part of wider, complex algorithmic systems incorporating multiple ICT systems, government databases, citizen portals and intertwined networks often based on combinations of robotic process automation, rule-based (expert) models, regression, big data, and machine learning.

In algorithmic bureaucracies, there is a continued increase in use of semi- and fully automated AADM characterized by shared decision authority between public servants and automated decision-systems.
“In those bureaucracies we see a continued increase in use of semi and fully automated AADM characterized by shared forms of decision authority between public servants and automated decision-systems (Roehl, 2022).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
