'Human error' is blamed for spelling gaffes in AI leaflet

LETTER TO LOCALS FROM MP'S OFFICE LEAVES RED FACES

- JASBIR AUTHI News Reporter

A BIRMINGHAM MP has spoken of his 'regret' after householders received a leaflet riddled with spelling mistakes.

The letter, which was highlighting a project to establish a learning hub for Life Sciences in Selly Oak and concerns over Artificial Intelligence (AI), was sent out by the office of Selly Oak Labour MP Al Carns.

Around half a dozen words, including education, survey, artificial intelligence, announced, guarantee and Britain, were spelt incorrectly.

His office said the error occurred when an earlier version of a newsletter containing the mistakes was published by accident.

The gaffe was put down to 'human error' and the mistakes were rectified for the rest of the print run.
