Danish authorities, with the help of artificial intelligence, uncovered cases of fraud by pensioners who lived outside the European Union without informing the Danish authorities. Intensive surveillance continued for a year and resulted in suspicion of 511 cases. 36 cases of fraud were uncovered in which pensioners illegally received pensions because of their residence outside the European Union without informing the Danish authorities, as required by Danish law, according to Politiken. In other cases, fraud was uncovered in claiming celibacy and receiving housing support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The news from the source stated that in 2023, 36 pensioners were caught cheating on their pensions, and Amnesty International believes that surveillance has gone too far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to Ritsau, the Danish Public Payment Authority (Udbetaling Danmark) uses artificial intelligence to detect fraud in the payment of public pensions and housing support. However, according to Amnesty International, the number of fraud cases is too small to be proportional to the scale of the extensive surveillance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The figures mentioned come from a report by Udbetaling Danmark for Amnesty International, which criticized the surveillance operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With the help of artificial intelligence, computer systems can identify retirees who have settled outside the European Union or European Economic Area countries without informing the Danish authorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 2023, the systems found 511 suspicious pensioners, Politiken wrote, and 351 cases were investigated, and in 36 cases the money was returned to the treasury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The newspaper wrote that other AI-assisted systems are planned to detect social media scams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Last year, this led to 491 people being suspected of cheating on maternity benefits, and the suspicion was correct in 72 cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Additionally, 412 people were suspected of deceiving themselves to gain significant social benefits by lying about being single, which was proven in 135 cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Amnesty International believes there are very few cases where monitoring is not sensible: \u201cWhen you look at the rather meager results, the massive surveillance apparatus operating in Denmark is neither necessary nor proportionate in our view. According to Helen Mukiri-Smith, an AI researcher at Amnesty International, speaking to Politiken: \u201cIt\u2019s not even helpful.\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Amnesty International believes that surveillance violates the right to privacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to the source, Udbetaling Danmark does not want to tell Politiken about the cost of monitoring welfare benefits, nor do they want to know how much money the treasury saves by finding fraud and offenders.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
