Plugging [AI] into an insurer, whilst technically possible, today generates pretty catastrophic consumer outcomes. It can hallucinate on consent, it can hallucinate on terms and conditions, it can hallucinate on prices.Verified source (2026)

Verified. An archived PDF copy of the FT article linked by the source URL (published April 9, 2026) identifies Sam Jones as Compare the Market’s chief operating officer at lines 156-162 and then gives the quote verbatim at lines 163-166. The live FT URL matches that same article.

AI Unverifiable
Opinion 9043: "Plugging [AI] into an insurer, whilst technically possible, today generates pretty catastrophic consumer outcomes. It can hallucinate on consent, it can hallucinate on terms and conditions, it can hallucinate on prices." Source URL is a Financial Times article (https://www.ft.com/content/72c20f77-e85d-49cb-84ef-4b676244d1c5). WebFetch to ft.com is blocked (403 / unable to fetch), and the web.archive.org fallback is also blocked. Multiple targeted WebSearch queries for exact phrases ("hallucinate on consent", "hallucinate on prices", "pretty catastrophic consumer outcomes", "plugging AI into an insurer") returned zero direct hits quoting this text, and searches against plausible UK insurer executives (Amanda Blanc, Jason Storah, Tim Bailey, Adam Winslow, Matt Cullen) did not surface an attributable quote matching the wording. Year (2026) is current and acceptable; vote "for" is consistent with the quote meaning (a warning against autonomous AI in a regulated, fiduciary-duty industry supports prohibition). However, because the FT source is inaccessible and the author attribution (author_id 4037) cannot be independently confirmed via web search, I cannot conservatively mark this "verified". Marking as ai_unverifiable pending human check of the FT article.
