根据政府数据，人工智能正导致《信息自由法》（FOIA）请求激增，但据《华盛顿邮报》FOIA总监内特·琼斯（Nate Jones）的一份新报告显示，人工智能也被用于帮助政府更高效地处理这些请求。
Artificial intelligence is leading to a boom in Freedom of Information Act requests, according to government data, but it's also being used to help the government process those requests more efficiently, according to a new report from the Washington Post's FOIA director Nate Jones.
为什么这很重要：各机构处理的请求比以往任何时候都多，但它们仍然落后于需求。这一现实使得政府利用人工智能来帮助处理和修订请求的做法变得更加引人注目。
Why it matters: Agencies are processing more requests than ever, but they're still behind. That reality makes the government's use of AI to help process and redact requests more compelling.
