What was corrected

What the page claimed

Article attached specific statistics (a '10 to 20 percent' error figure and a '46 percent' noise-reduction figure) to Kahneman, Sibony, and Sunstein's real book 'Noise' that do not match what the book actually reports. It described a 2023 Brynjolfsson and McAfee MIT Sloan Management Review study, a 2022 Mellers and Tetlock Psychological Science study, and a 2024 Mollick Journal of Applied Psychology study, none of which could be located, though all three researchers are real and work in adjacent areas. It also described case studies for Cleveland Clinic, Unilever, Capital One, and the Dutch Ministry of Finance with specific statistics and named publications that could not be verified, though each organization has real, documented AI-related activity in a related area.

What was corrected

Rewrote the research and case-studies sections, preserving the real people, books, and organizations while removing the specific studies and statistics that could not be verified. Replaced the case studies with accurate descriptions of each organization's real, documented AI initiatives (Cleveland Clinic's IBM Discovery Accelerator partnership, Unilever's Sky forecasting collaboration with Walmart, and the broader documented industry trends in AI-assisted lending and government budget analysis) without the unverifiable specific outcome figures.

Why this is better

Verified against the actual content of Kahneman, Sibony, and Sunstein's 'Noise,' the actual publication records of Brynjolfsson, McAfee, Mellers, Tetlock, and Mollick, and public reporting on Cleveland Clinic's, Unilever's, Capital One's, and the Dutch Ministry of Finance's real AI initiatives; no corroborating source found for any of the specific studies or statistics removed.
