2025-02-13

In February 2025, Tromsø Municipality presented a report proposing the closure of schools and kindergartens. Residents later discovered the report cited numerous non-existent sources. Officials admitted using generative AI to help draft the report, leading to fabricated references. The incident led to public outcry, national commentary, and suspension of the closure plan. It is considered Norway’s first major public-sector AI scandal.
