The AI component of AERO transforms this from a conventional audit enforcement program into something courts have not yet fully evaluated. Rather than deploying human auditors to review specific findings, AERO is designed to use AI analytical tools to re-evaluate and re-score years of historical Single Audit data, flagging patterns and irregularities through processes that the agency has not publicly explained. If HHS later uses an AI output as a material basis for withholding funds, disallowing costs, suspending or terminating an award, or initiating debarment, an affected grantee may be told what the system flagged without being given enough information to test why or learn how it reached that result.

This is a CATASTROPHICALLY murderous plan.
