Minor point: the headline keeps it quite neutral as to whether this is a good thing or a mistake!

  That's the point. You click on the article to find out.

  That's probably a good thing overall... I mean neutral reporting and titling of articles. Too much reporting has become editorialized.

    It is not a good thing in this case. The mere suggestion that it might be a mistake is editorializing, not being neutral to the article. I assume the comment above is being diplomatic in it's wording, but being "neutral" about whether these convictions were intentional or a mistake is not the same thing as neutral reporting. The topic of AI or algorithms making mistakes is not relevant to this article at all. It doesn't summarize the content, and the implication that it might be code run amok, in the title, is super misleading and undermines the positive things the people in the article are trying to do, both the politicians who did the right thing, and the efforts of Code For America.

      I wasn't just commenting in this case. I just mean in general, I'd prefer to see more neutral reporting and less editorializing.
