Summary of Washington Post 6/4/2025 Article

the article

Washington Post “challenged AI helpers to decode legal contracts, simplify medical research, speed-read a novel, and make sense of Trump speeches.”  They asked ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, Meta AI, and Gemini.  Responses varied from good to bad.  Scores are out of 10.

Literature

  • [7.8] ChatGPT. Best summary.  Failed to address slavery and the Civil War (as did most AI bots).
  • [7.3] Claude. Got facts right
  • [4.3] Meta AI.
  • [3.5] Copilot.
  • [2.3] Gemini. Inaccurate, misleading, and sloppy. Like when Costanza watches the “Breakfast at Tiffany's” movie instead of reading the book.

Law

  • [6.9] Claude. Most consistently decent answers and did well suggesting changes to their test rental agreement.
  • [6.1] Gemini
  • [5.4] Copilot
  • [5.3] ChatGPT. tried to reduce complex parts of the contracts to one-line summaries and missed important points (key clauses).
  • [2.6] Meta AI. tried to reduce complex parts of the contracts to one-line summaries. Skipped several sections and important points.
