Not being able to identify individual molecules results in loss of randomness when analyzing stochastic chemical processes, which is why chemical reactions cannot typically be used as RNGs.
“Although this is a promising approach, not being able to identify individual molecules results in the loss of randomness when analyzing stochastic chemical processes, which is why chemical reactions cannot typically be used as RNGs15.”

Although expectation of products can be statistically predicted, being able to identify individual molecules after synthesis is rarely possible.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
