How to tell if an AI answer is reliable
You can't tell from the tone. Recompute the figure that matters, check the rule is current and local, find the counting method, and get a second answer from another company's AI.
Read the guideBecause a model checking its own answer tends to repeat the reasoning that produced it, and models from the same company share training and habits. A reviewer from another company that works the question out on its own, before reading the answer, is a more independent check. It is not a guarantee, which is why a good report quotes each claim it disputes, so you can look it up yourself.
Asking a model to review its own answer sometimes catches a slip. But research on self-correction found that, without outside feedback, models often don't improve their reasoning when asked to recheck it, and sometimes make it worse (Huang et al., “Large Language Models Cannot Self-Correct Reasoning Yet”, ICLR 2024).

Models from different companies are trained on different data with different methods, so they are less likely to make exactly the same mistake. When ChatRound knows where an answer came from, it picks reviewers from other companies, and the report is not written by that company's model either.
A reviewer that reads the answer first can pick up its framing, and its error with it. ChatRound's reviewers write their own answer to the question before they go through the original, in the same call.
With two reviewers, a disagreement is information. The report marks a claim as disputed rather than averaging the two views, and quotes each side.
In our Schengen examples, one reviewer took the wrong side in three of the six languages. The other reviewer was right, and the dispute was there in the report to see.
Example check: Back to Europe after 70 days? The 90/180 rule, checked
Two models can share a mistake. For anything that costs money or affects your health, look the flagged claim up in a primary source. The report quotes it, so you know exactly what to search for.

Redo the one calculation the answer depends on, with a tool. Check the period of every rate, count dates the way the rule does, and use an official calculator where there is one.
