Headlines have limited space, so they cannot contain every caveat. Before sharing a surprising technology claim, read beyond the headline and look for the original source.
Ask whether a result has been demonstrated, tested with users or merely proposed. Check who measured the outcome, how large the test was and whether independent experts have examined it.
Notice the difference between a statement of fact, a prediction and an opinion. In political or commercial discussions, also ask whether the speaker has an interest in the outcome.
Responsible reporting makes uncertainty visible and corrects mistakes. Readers can apply the same habits when interpreting what they see online.
This article is a source-linked explainer, not a claim of firsthand interviews or exclusive reporting.
