The European Union is suspected of using artificial intelligence in the preparation of sanctions. An EU official told DW it's "not an automatic process" An EU representative told a DW reporter that the preparation of EU sanctions lists is "not an automatic process," and possible errors are corrected. He refused to comment directly on the possible use of artificial intelligence in the preparation of a new package of EU sanctions against the Russian Federation, but emphasized that "all documents are prepared by experts and undergo separate verification." According to him, "different tools can be used at different stages of the process, including providing a uniform format and in some cases also translations". The sanctions lists are constantly reviewed, which allows the EU to correct any errors they noticed after the adoption (of the sanctions. - Ed. ), including thanks to the work of journalists," said the representative of the EU. Earlier, on October 26, The Insider published an investigation that the new EU sanctions package shows signs of the use of large language modeling (LLM) in its creation and contains many errors, for example in the names of sanctioned Russian companies and the spelling of the names of the people included in the sanctions lists. Such mistakes are typical when using artificial intelligence, the investigation claims.
