From the report

The industry is engaged in a perverse quest to replace humans. We cannot cede the best tools available to the other side.

Headline check

All two things this headline claims are in the report.

Figures, names and quoted words in the headline, looked for in the report itself — not in the summary above. How this is checked

This is a summary. The indicators are not. Every score on this page was measured over the full 1171-word report, which is the only way the numbers mean anything.
