A user says they asked GPT-5.6 to audit several randomly selected papers from the Annals of Statistics for serious errors.
According to the post, the model flagged potentially significant issues in all of them:
- some looked repairable
- others seemed more fundamental
The implication is that the model may already be useful as a first-pass paper auditor, at least on this sample.
