Key bits:

The report referenced a match between Maccabi Tel Aviv and West Ham that never happened - pressed by MPs last week, Chief Constable Craig Guildford insisted that the force “do not use AI”, instead blaming a Google search

In an earlier appearance at the Home Affairs Committee, he had blamed “social media scraping” for the incorrect information

However, in a letter to the Home Affairs Select Committee released today he admits the mistake was the “result of a use of Microsoft Co Pilot” - an AI tool

Potentially lying to parliament committes should come with perjury charges. AI slop will mysteriously dissapear at that stage

The decision to ban away fans from this game is starting to look more and more incompetent. I have no idea if it was the correct decision, and I don’t trust the judgement of the people who made that decision. Clearly they did not do adequate investigation.
