Kenya’s AI PMT Failure: Misclassified Millions, Healthcare Access and Governance Lessons

When AI Decides Who Gets Healthcare: Kenya’s PMT Experiment and the Cost of Getting the Model Wrong Executive summary: Kenya’s Social Health Authority (SHA) replaced large parts of its old insurance system with a predictive, asset‑based model that assigns premiums through proxy means testing (PMT). The rollout misclassified millions—often marking the poorest as wealthier—pushing families […]

Streaming TaskTrove: Fast discovery, verifier detection and parquet export of evaluation-ready tasks

Streaming TaskTrove: fast discovery, verifier detection, and export for evaluation-ready tasks TL;DR: Inspect thousands of tasks from Hugging Face TaskTrove without downloading hundreds of gigabytes. Use dataset streaming, on-the-fly parsing, and lightweight verifier detection to find evaluation-ready (RL-ready) tasks quickly. The approach reduces storage and time costs, surfaces high-value tasks with graders or test suites, […]

Harvard Study: LLMs Match or Beat ER Doctors in Triage — What Hospital Leaders Should Do
