It synthesizes a more comprehensive report, using more sources, more varied sources, more data, and broader insights than a human analyst can produce in 1-2 days of research and writing.

I'm not confused about this. If you don't agree, I will assume it's probably because you've never employed a human to do similar work in the past. Because it's not particularly close. It's night and day. *Note that I'm not saying 20 minutes of deep research beats 9 months of investigative journalism with private interviews with primary sources or anything like that. I'm talking about asking an analyst on your team to do a deep dive into XYZ and have something on your desk tomorrow EOD.

It has more words put together in seemingly correct sentences, so it's long enough his boss won't actually read it to proof it.
