The premise
Trauma survivors recall events nonlinearly, which AI credibility models systematically misread as deception.
What AI does well here

- Translate between languages with caveats
- Flag passages for adjudicator review
What AI cannot do
- Judge whether a person is telling the truth
- Account for cultural communication norms
- Replace trauma-informed interviewing
