Ocran is not over. This validates a lot of what we were thinking when we did that first podcast (cc: @ZeynabZiaie @ljansdan).

"Statistics on the use of indicators and word flags are not tracked globally, though the information if present on individual applications would appear in notes in GCMS."

Not really - if it "shows up" only as a redaction for Applicants but can be seen by IRCC/DOJ in litigation.

Also, the fact it is not tracked globally is likely because each Visa Office is given it's own autonomy to do it's own thing - something that will clash with creating a centralized AI-based decision-making system.

"IRCC’s advanced analytics and automation systems operate independently of Chinook, and they are reviewed routinely to ensure they are working as intended and align with the Government’s Directive on Automated Decision-Making."

AI/AA does the dirty work, #Chinook hides the body.
