AI for proof reading

Thomas_Holding

I have a long paper (about 80K words).  Has anyone got any advice about which AI could proof read it?

I wouldn't trust any of them. I sent a long, carefully worded announcement to my boss for him to send out to his team, he ran it through Co-Pilot and sent out something with punctuation I would have been ashamed to put my name to ( so glad I didn't have to)

Ha ha - did he get in trouble?

Did he get the point?

No because he's the boss - my point is that HE thought co-pilot was correct and I was wrong because, you know, AI...it's supposed to be clever

As a former copywriter and proofreader, I often used Grammarly (just need to ensure you set it to UK spelling).

The belief that a computer must be right is quite common - after all it does look authorative.
Many countries in the world use withholding tax (not in the UK) and in the late 90s early 2000s one big company's accounting software had a bug in it which meant it was calculated wrongly - and very few people noticed.  I know because I was working with it.
