I did in fact do it, and what I got was much, much easier than the samples in the article, which 4o did fine with. I'm sorry, but I declare the burden of proof here to be switched. Can you find a hard one?

Awesome.
Can you guarantee its results are completely accurate every time, with every document, and need no human review?
