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.
my thought is mainly that there aren’t enough hours in the day to read and check everything on wikipedia. there’s a reason the scots vandalism went unnoticed so long, people just don’t have the time.
