  And yet we are discussing this in the context of a reporter having been fired from Ars Technica for publishing an article which included inaccurate LLM-generated summaries in 2026. How come? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47226608 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47226608

    Maybe you should read the article? :) What failed was extracting verbatim quotes, not summarizing. If you want an LLM to do verbatim anything, it has to be a tool call. So I’m not surprised.
