The Western Australian government has said it is “extremely disappointed” and is seeking an “expedited” cost recovery from Deloitte after errors were discovered in a report on a potential university merger, including AI-hallucinated references and hundreds of millions of dollars in cost discrepancies.
The WA government paid Deloitte $166,000 for a feasibility study on merging the University of Western Australia, Curtin university and Murdoch university.
