    Hahaha, AI will replace all jobs and turn professionals into … proofreaders?

    jokes aside: can’t they use a second sweep to proofread the thing?

      @Gsus4 @TheBat the more worrying thing is how many times it has made something up that nobody has spotted because it looks normal.
      Proofreading spots spelling/punctuation/formatting issues. You need a deeper copyedit, not just a scan, to check the sense of something. And that won’t necessarily catch factually untrue, but perfectly plausible, things.
