Chris Schmitz is the academic mentioned in Under strAIn: breaking the British state for counting examples of AI pressure on bureaucratic systems. The source says Schmitz identified 93 examples across 11 countries, including Japan, Brazil, Germany, Canada, and the United States.

The count suggests that AI-assisted appeals, claims, requests, and applications can stress many administrative systems when rules are complex and challenge mechanisms are easy to invoke.
