An investigation into an artificial intelligence tool aimed at helping match children in foster care to prospective adoptive parents found that the technology offered limited help with the process.

According to a report on the investigation by Voice of America, social workers in Florida, Georgia and Virginia implemented the tool but ultimately found that it "often led them to unwilling families."

Virginia and Georgia stopped using the tool after a trial run, the report said, noting that it only produced one or two adoptions per year.
