UnitedHealthcare, the largest health insurance company in the US, is allegedly using a deeply flawed AI algorithm to override doctors’ judgments and wrongfully deny critical health coverage to elderly patients. This has resulted in patients being kicked out of rehabilitation programs and care facilities far too early, forcing them to drain their life savings to obtain needed care that should be covered under their government-funded Medicare Advantage Plan.
This doesn’t sound flawed at all. It sounds exactly as intended.
For the life of me I cannot understand why we tolerate this criminal behavior.

Because no one who can do anything about it gives a shit.
