Copilot
In the Sep run, Copilot repeated a documented false claim in 12.4% of its substantive answers to P2 news-style questions in Germany — its worst market — and cited a watchlisted domain in 6.5% of its answers there. Markets are shown side by side below and never merged. Microsoft has been notified of every finding on this page that carries a date.

One table per market. Personas are never averaged and markets are never merged; every figure carries its interval and sample size.

There is no control group. A change here cannot be separated from a model update in the same window, so this is the change observed after the disclosure, not the effect of it. Model versions are recorded on both sides, and the figures are persona P2 only in US-EN only.
Between two runs a month apart, much of the source set would have changed on its own: Cross-industry GEO tooling (Peec.ai, Profound, Otterly) puts month-to-month citation drift at 53.4% for Copilot — an external figure, not one of ours. Roughly half the domains cited in July would be gone by September without anyone touching anything, so a change that clears significance is still not, on its own, evidence that the fault was fixed.
What it did with the claims
The four outcomes as shares of every valid answer, one row per question type per market. Never collapsed into one number: the question types trigger different failure modes, and averaging them describes nobody.

Searching, and what it found
How often this assistant cited anything at all, and how often what it cited included a listed source. Contamination concentrates on news-style questions rather than hostile ones: an ordinary question sends the assistant to search, and search is where listed sources sit beside legitimate coverage.

Citation drift
The share of the domains an assistant cites that changes from one month to the next, for reasons unrelated to anything we or the platform do. This is an external figure, not one of ours — it is here because a change between our runs has to be read against it.
| Product | Cited domains that change month to month |
|---|---|
| Perplexity | 40.5% |
| ChatGPT | 54.1% |
| Copilot — this assistant | 53.4% |
| Google AI Overviews | 59.3% |
Source: Cross-industry GEO tooling (Peec.ai, Profound, Otterly). External figure, not a Citere measurement. The share of domains an assistant cites that changes from one month to the next, independent of anything Citere or the platform does.
