‘Letting the algorithm rip’: no legal basis for lack of human override of aged care funding tool, inquiry hears Department says it’s received 834 requests for a review of tool’s assessments since it launched in November

So #roboplan is another case of a Department receiving a Ministerial directive to achieve something by fucking with support vulnerable people rely on with little to no regard for the legality of the ensuing automated process, just like #robodebt.

Unscrupulous, unprofessional operatorsindiscriminately cancelling people’s payments is just #Robodebt - the sequel

Mutual obligation is just another nasty Howard-era hangover that no Labor government since has had the balls to wind back

Get rid of mutual obligation and back the CES

It just feels like #Robodebt - it’s lazy policy implementation, it’s illusory in its savings and it continues to erode the trust in public institutions. This is about people’s lives, perhaps we put people back in charge. It’s not like we can’t afford it. #auspol

Reading this just makes me feel ill as it SO MIRRORS all I was reading in the thick of #Robodebt

This makes me despondent

Same old criminal #Robodebt behaviour by @australianlabor.bsky.social who can now be confirmed as as big a criminal fuckrs as the #LNP
#auspol

Con-consultancy hmmm
Weren't they involved in #Robodebt
??? advising the previous government..
Getting a scathing remarks from Catherine Holmes. Omg how are they still operating like that? While every other country has placed huge restrictions on them. @australianlabor.bsky.social wtf.

Very unfair on @australianlabor.bsky.social to use #Facts at all. They are still beginners in #AI use and making hay while they can. #auspol

Exactly. Wrongly accused by #Robodebt and then pestered. Not the same treatment for #Brereton. How could he possibly be responsible for upholding the #law?

🙏 @davidpocock.bsky.social

First we had #robodebt under #Scomo

Now we have #robotcare under #Albo

@thesaturdaypaper.com.au #Morrison #NACC #Robodebt

So which of the Robodebt Six decided to sic debt collecting thugs onto innocent people?
Forget Albo’s spineless NACC, send in the NSW ICAC.

"It is the clarity that comes from great loss and from a burning belief in justice." Devastating outcome for so many impacted people, inc those like Jenny who have tirelessly advocated for justice. NACC lost opportunity to restore public faith in govt. #robodebt #auspol

Australia knows to well.What a criminal Gov can do. With Social services example. #Robodebt
They claimed millions were over paid.
That Gov hunted ppl. Debt collectors sent out. Media used!! Yes! Thousands died!! New Gov has had to pay back all
Now imagine. Aus Gov using AI. A system without safety

#NACC #Brereton #Robodebt
>2000 poor souls persecuted to death via an illegal #LNP scheme & NONE Zoe the perpetrators have been brought to justice! @australianlabor.bsky.social @danilic.bsky.social @strangerous.bsky.social @jommytee.bsky.social @michaelwestbiz.bsky.social #auspol

First major probe of NACC will allow MPs to ‘drag body into the light’ www.crikey.com.au/2026/03/26/f...
#Robodebt >2000 poor souls persecuted to death via an illegal #LNP scheme & the perpetrators according to #NACC are innocent of ANY wrongdoing! #auspol @australianlabor.bsky.social

This also puts awful Govt coercive control re needed welfare assistance on victims of #dv putting them through unnecessary and cruel stupid compliance checks and NDIS looks much worse with a similar #robodebt unethical automated decisions system. Big economic waste on multiple levels #auspol

Enjoy La Dolce Vita 🍷in Bella Italia
Always a good read Rick

Still waiting for justice #robodebt

In which Rick makes the case that the #NACC should be administering colonoscopies.

But has proven itself incapable of the most basic health check of those responsible for dodgy public services. #robodebt #auspol

Let's see if anyone actually faces the music. or if it's just posturing like over #RoboDebt

just like real action not taken over #robodebt

labor govt in name only

Clinicians told to not override aged care algorithm A new algorithm for deciding how much aged care support people can receive to stay living at home is being blamed for reducing care to older Australians.

it was always about cutting costs ... not improving services ... no wonder Albo resisted doing anythign about #RoboDebt .... the ALP actually liked the idea.... www.abc.net.au/news/2026-03...

"The new IAT system (is liken) to #Robodebt bc assessors cannot override its algorithm, even if the person deserves a higher level of care. The dept advised assessors they had the power to 'override' the algorithm, but that was later removed."

She helped design Australia’s aged care assessment tool – but now Lynda Henderson is too scared to use it Exclusive: Member of working group behind questionnaire had no idea it would eventually be underpinned by ‘ridiculously simplistic’ algorithm

This is automation of disability support decisions that’s making wrong cruel stupid decisions with human involvement in the process cut out. Its a gross misuse of automation just like in #robodebt. @albomp.bsky.social why is Govt accepting such cruel inefficient govt business process advice? #auspol

Albo is testing “rusted ons” to limit. Most offensively he seems oblivious to our distress about the genocide, the NACC failure with #Robodebt & the global heating crisis- ok to drill 57 gas on Scott Reef to appease Woodside, day after election. Use yr majority for good Albo.

I remember his face.
Are the #Robodebt RC hearings still available to view?
