No, not that either. Unless you consider "use LLM to summarize the changes/errors/inaccuracies, then have a human read the whole thing again" an improvement over "just have a human read the whole thing".

Because LLM will do all these things:

  • point you toward issues
  • point you toward non-issues
  • not point you toward issues
  • change stuff even when "instructed" not to

If there is one thing you don't want to throw an LLM at without full, unbiased review, it's documents where the wording is legally binding. And if you have to do a full, unbiased review to begin with, where you can't even trust your tool to have highlighted all the important parts, you may as well not bother with the tool.
