The next bottleneck is verification

Generating an answer is only the beginning.

The signal

Google Research introduced Deep Review for analyzing complex technical documents. The system aims to help examine reasoning, mathematical claims, and factual grounding while leaving higher-level judgments to people.

The idea to learn

A summary tells you what a document says. Verification asks whether its claims follow from evidence. These are different tasks and should be evaluated differently.

A practical lens

Separate a review into claims, supporting evidence, and unresolved questions. Ask for a location in the document for each concern. Treat automated feedback as a lead to investigate, rather than a verdict.

Try this

Choose a short technical proposal. Highlight three claims and identify what observation, experiment, or reference could confirm each one.
