Check an AI-generated study answer
An answer can sound fluent while containing a wrong calculation, a missing assumption or an invented reference. Treat generated material as something to inspect, not an answer key by default.

A worked example
If an answer says 3x + 4 = 19 gives x = 6, substitute six: 3 × 6 + 4 equals 22, not 19. The failed check identifies an error without relying on the explanation’s confident wording. For a factual claim, locate the original source and verify that it says what the answer attributes to it.
Try it in three steps
- Extract the specific claim or calculation.
- Check with a source or an independent method.
- Correct the answer and retain the reason.
What to watch for
Do not send private records or restricted course material to a third-party tool merely to check a small question. Zehano’s manual workspaces do not upload your notes to an AI service.
Apply it to your own material
Choose one topic from your current course or project. Write down the question you want to answer, make an attempt, and keep a note of how you checked it. Use the example above as a pattern; replace its subject matter and assumptions rather than copying an answer into a different task.
