The exact change
The article stated that LLMs develop emergent reasoning at scale, that a majority of employers use screening tools and Amazon automatically terminates workers, that AlphaFold predicted virtually all known protein structures, that generative AI could automate 300 million jobs, a 6-9-month compute doubling since 2012, and presented the 2023 AI executive order as a current framework.
Qualified the emergent-reasoning, screening, and Amazon claims; corrected the AlphaFold scope; attributed and scoped the 300-million-jobs and compute-doubling estimates; and updated the executive-order status to reflect its January 2025 revocation.

Why this is better
These claims were more certain, precise, or current than the evidence supports. Corrections attribute figures to their sources (Goldman Sachs 2023; Epoch AI; DeepMind AlphaFold) and update time-sensitive policy facts rather than adding new sources.
How this record is verified
- The contribution is tied to a real, identified contributor, not an anonymous byline.
- It counts only because the publisher, When Notes Fly, accepted it. Self-claimed work earns nothing.
- It is recorded against a specific page and cannot be bought or edited after the fact.
