NoteThe record claims TA2 — Machine Learning has status 'inactive', which is technically consistent with the source's description of the programme being stopped/aborted. However, the source indicates TA2 is not merely 'inactive' but has been actively discontinued as of November 2025. The record's characterization of status as 'inactive' is imprecise — the source describes an active decision to abort/stop the TA2 selection process entirely, not a passive state of inactivity. The programme was actively terminated, not passively inactive. This represents a meaningful contradiction in how the status is characterized: 'inactive' suggests a dormant or paused state, whereas the source describes an explicit termination decision.
