Australian government uses AI to censor public submissions to parliamentary inquiry: a grieving mother who lost her daughter to Pfizer mRNA jab 2 had her entire submission to the Covid Response Inquiry blacked out

A taste:
[LettersFromAustralia] This is the AI censorship that the government is now using on you

Public submissions to the Commonwealth Government COVID-19 Response Inquiry have been bizarrely censored by Artificial Intelligence (AI).

Raelene Kennedy, mother of Caitlin Gotze, 23, who died shortly after her second Pfizer shot, had her two-page submission 1784 entirely blacked out here, archived here.

Raelene Kennedy bravely spoke out many times in interview including here
All that appears of her story are two black slabs.

When Raelene saw the complete redaction without even her name on it, she despaired.

“The truth is never going to come out,” she said on Saturday.

Raelene wrote to the Covid-19 Response Inquiry asking how she could make a submission without censorship as the next of kin.

She got a form-letter response.

“Submissions may have been redacted in accordance with the Privacy Notice,” the email said.

“Submissions may have been redacted where they contain material with the personal or business information of third parties if the department does not have their consent to publish the information.”

They will never have Caitlin’s consent because she is dead. Caitlin - a healthy, vibrant, beautiful, young woman - died less than two months after her second Pfizer mRNA injection.

The terrible story of Caitlin’s death has been told publicly by Raelene on Jab Injuries Australia’s Instagram here, on Cafe Locked Out here and to the Joint Parliamentary Covid Inquiry in 2021 here, backup here.

It’s not a secret to be guarded by the government with censorship.

Raelene wants answers and has joined Dr Melissa McCann’s class action to help the vaccine bereaved and injured, as detailed by Rebakah Barnett here.

IS ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE NOW CENSORING DEMOCRACY?
Letters From Australia also wrote a four-page submission, 1116, archived here, which has been oddly redacted, as if by an AI that searches for capital letters but can’t tell the difference between names that need privacy and those that don’t.

#3  Censorship is so yesterday. When will Australia discover Dominion voting machines ?

#2  Substack is a place for columnists and the like, so that is why it was placed in opinion.

#1  hello everyone, not sure why this is in Opinion, it's actually a news piece. Ie: factual, with references, and right of reply given and reply quoted...

however this is a big threat to free speech because of the context it is in - in the USA you are going to be censored piecemeal as the countries around you are passing censorship laws and will be using the AI to do it.

This is the first faltering example.

See how the AI cannot understand the difference between "Bradford Hill criteria of causation" and an imaginary person called "Bradford Hill" who might need their name redacted for privacy

and the AI can't understand that "Pfizer" isn't a proper name not to be redacted

Also dangerous as it's parliamentary submissions - the communication between the public and the parliament.
