I'm always intrigued by how we approach and judge language tools for Irish, and by the sociolinguistic and technical factors at play. I think a major issue is that many Irish tools are not built for speaker communities, but trained on legal jargon and caighdeán to support mandated translation tasks.
There's a 'chatgpt' called Gael GPT set up for the #Irishlanguage, and it's an absolute pile of rubbish. Incorrect constantly as suspected. Don't bother wasting your time. Mess. Surprised it's being promoted.

The earliest human face of Western Europe - Nature
A Homo aff. erectus individual dated to 1.4 million to 1.1 million years ago found at Sima del Elefante (Sierra de Atapuerca, Spain) does not display the modern-human-like aspect of Homo antecessor found at the neighbouring Gran Dolina site (900,000–800,000 years ago).
