“We already see how AI tools can turbocharge fraud and automate discrimination, and we won’t hesitate to use the full scope of our legal authorities to protect Americans from these threats,” said FTC Chair Lina M. Khan. “Technological advances can deliver critical innovation—but claims of innovation must not be cover for lawbreaking. There is no AI exemption to the laws on the books, and the FTC will vigorously enforce the law to combat unfair or deceptive practices or unfair methods of competition.”

Wall Street has been using algorithms for selling, processing, and reporting on transactions with homeowners for 25 years. I investigated this and reported on it starting in 2006. Virtually every letter, statement, or notice homeowners receive is composed and sent by machines.

When the time comes that this joint statement of federal agencies is put into action, Investment banks will (a) be revealed as the originators in all homeowner transactions and (b) be revealed as violating consumer protection laws as their main business model.

The main and most important effect of this paradigm shift at Federal agencies is that the defense (plausible deniability) that the “machine did it” is being stripped away. Individual liability under criminal and civil laws will apply. Machines don’t make decisions. People make decisions. Machines carry out those human decisions.

FORECLOSURE DEFENSE IS NOT SIMPLE. THERE IS NO GUARANTEE OF A FAVORABLE RESULT. THE COMMENTS ON THIS BLOG AND ELSEWHERE ARE BASED ON THE ABILITY OF A HOMEOWNER TO WIN THE CASE NOT MERELY SETTLE IT. OTHER LAWYERS HAVE STRATEGIES DIRECTED AT SETTLEMENT OR MODIFICATION. THE FORECLOSURE MILLS WILL DO EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO WEAR YOU DOWN AND UNDERMINE YOUR CONFIDENCE. ALL EVIDENCE SHOWS THAT NO MEANINGFUL SETTLEMENT OCCURS UNTIL THE 11TH HOUR OF LITIGATION.

But challenging the “servicers” and other claimants before they seek enforcement can delay action by them for as much as 14 years or more. In addition, although currently rare, it can also result in your homestead being free and clear of any mortgage lien that you contested. (No Guarantee).

Yes you DO need a lawyer.
