Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • ChatGPT achieved a notable milestone by scoring 60% proficiency on the United States Medical Licensing Exam.

    “Recently, ChatGPT, a large language model (LLM) from OpenAI (https://chat.openai.com/), achieved a notable milestone by scoring 60% proficiency on the United States Medical Licensing Exam, USMLE (37).”
  • The lack of approved anti-SARS-CoV-2 drugs during the initial phases of the COVID-19 pandemic led to increased enthusiasm in computer-aided drug repurposing.

    “The lack of approved anti-SARS-CoV-2 drugs during the initial phases of the COVID-19 pandemic led to increased enthusiasm in computer-aided drug repurposing (51).”
  • Most data that have been recently integrated into TCRD facilitate application of AI/ML techniques for target evaluation and drug repositioning, and are accessible in ML ready format.

    “Further, most data that have been recently integrated into TCRD facilitate application of artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) techniques for target evaluation and drug repositioning (47), and are accessible in ML ready format.”

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.
