DWP increases face-to-face PIP assessments amid concerns over AI chatbot use by claimants
The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) is increasing face-to-face assessments for Personal Independence Payment (PIP) claims due to growing concerns that claimants are using AI chatbots to help draft applications and appeal letters.
