Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
Some of these concerns could be addressed by training models on more carefully curated and annotated datasets, and by using techniques for overseeing or challenging untrustworthy communication.
“Some of these concerns could be addressed by training models on more carefully curated and annotated datasets (Aly et al., 2021; Peskov et al., 2020), and by using techniques for overseeing or challenging untrustworthy communication (Greenblatt et al., 2023; Irving et al., 2018).”
From Multi-Agent Risks from Advanced AI (2025) · cites this paper as Peskov et al., 2020
The supplied passage is bibliographic metadata, not the paper’s substantive text. Searches for curated or annotated datasets and model training returned only that metadata, so our copy does not establish the dataset-related point attributed to Peskov et al. The oversight or challenge techniques are cited to other works in the sentence. (LLM, conf=0.75)

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.
