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.

    That’s my main use for LLMs

    • I write the code logic, the main argument points, etc
    • let the LLM lint, format and structure the discussion
    • I provide another round of copy editing, styling and other updates

      personally i have separate linters, formatters and structure markers that don’t raise the temperature of my apartment when in use, but you do you.
