This is a horrible butchering of language. You know that "policy maker" means person in everyday usage, stop being obtuse.

In the past I would have agreed with this statement, but nowadays I would assume an organization's actions are their policy until they state and act otherwise.
Humans made a policy that said the computer system could do this, so while GP might be inaccurate, you’re not right either.
That's only if humans are properly in charge of the system. With lots of moderation tools, they aren't.
then in this case, the policy maker is the person that empowered the AI.

doesn’t change the fact that the AI is seemingly being given final authority over policy decisions.
