For one month beginning on October 5, I ran an experiment: Every day, I asked ChatGPT 5 (more precisely, its "Extended Thinking" version) to find an error in "Today's featured article". In 28 of these 31 featured articles (90%), ChatGPT identified what I considered a valid error, often several. I have so far corrected 35 such errors.

Speaking very generally, it's still conceding an amount of human intelligence and there are problems with it that are worth talking about, but it's a use of AI that at least defers to human judgment, and as long as users are still personally researching and writing their own edits I honestly don't hate it. Much.

I agree here and this goes back before ai. Any automated thing is fine with humans in the loop but once you take them out is when the trouble starts.
