"Two observations recur across the research. The first concerns evaluation: a chain in which AI assesses AI has no fixed point of authority, so it never terminates. You can never say that a model is right. You can only say that it was right, in that instance. The second concerns influence: writing inside institutions may already be shaped by exposure to language models even where no model sits in the process, which leaves the effect undetectable, undeclarable, and ungovernable."
