AI Provenance

AI provenance is knowing which source a specific claim came from, at the level of the claim rather than the answer. A cited answer tells you which documents were consulted; provenance tells you which sentence rests on which source. The difference matters the moment someone asks why a system said something, because an answer-level citation cannot be checked and a claim-level one can.
