The over-positive publicity around AI may lead some to accept AI results without verification, which can lead to accepting false information as true - an especially serious problem in, for example, legal cases.*This just shows the unreliability of AI, but the ECHR also ruled it was a retraction. Regardless, the Nov. 7 memoriale leaves no ambiguity:
"I didn’t lie when I said I thought the killer was Patrick. I was very stressed at the time and I really did think he was the murderer. But now I remember that I can’t know who the murderer was because I didn’t return back to the house."
I agree that it's more important that it's ambiguous and even contradictory. The only thing she wrote that could even be considered a confirmation is the "And I stand by my statements that I made last night about events" part, but even that is very much weakened by the remaining part of the same sentence, "that could have taken place in my home with Patrik, but I want to make very clear that these events seem more unreal to me than what I said before, that I stayed at Raffaele's house." Its exclusion reeks of intellectual dishonesty. The vast majority of the Nov. 6 memoriale is questioning those "memories" as real or her imaginings and she even states that she's " very doubtful of the veritity [sic] of my statements."
In the case of Knox's conviction and re-conviction for calunnia, it's important to understand the relevant actual facts, laws, and legal principles.
