Summary

The government of the United Kingdom is reminding its employees that they do not need to thank AI systems when they produce an output, even in cases where that output is correct. The helpful note is included as part of the government's guidelines on " using AI ethically and sustainably ," and arises not out of a need to remember that these things are absolutely not sentient or "alive" in any way whatsoever, but simply because, well, they're horrifically expensive and bad for the planet.

AI summaries can be wrong sometimes—always verify important details using the source article.
