  • Power shortage for even a few days could paralyze critical services like water supply, food refrigeration, and health care, and longer-term shortages could affect food production.

    “Power shortage for even a few days could paralyze critical services like water supply, food refrigeration and distribution, health care (after the fuel in backup generators run out) [9,153,155,161], and longer-term shortages could even affect food production [162].”

  • Long transmission lines allow the induction of large static currents, which can damage connected infrastructure, especially transformers.

    “Long transmission lines allow the induction of large static currents, which can damage connected infrastructure, especially transformers [151,153,158].”

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.
