The classroom·Where it gets it wrong·Made-up facts, and where they come from
It fills gaps the way it fills sentences.

- What kinds of facts does your work depend on: names, part numbers, dates, prices?
- Where does the tool get those today, and is it reading them or remembering them?
- Has it ever given you a source that did not exist?
- Who checks before a fact goes out?
