A unique problem for LLMs is "hallucination," where the model generates false or nonsensical information with unwarranted confidence. While generative AI might create something visually incoherent that’s easy to detect (like a distorted image). But an LLM might subtly present incorrect information ...
But generative AI has the potential to do far more sophisticated cognitive work. To suggest an admittedly extreme example, generative AI might assist an organization’s strategy formation by responding to prompts requesting alternative ideas and scenarios from the managers of a business in the midst ...
AnAI hallucinationis a generative AI output that is nonsensical or altogether inaccurate—but, all too often, seems entirely plausible. The classic example is when a lawyer used a gen AI tool for research in preparation for a high-profile case—andthe tool ‘produced’ several example cases, ...
Created by OpenAI,ChatGPTis an example of text-to-text generative AI—essentially, an AI-powered chatbot trained to interact with users via natural language dialogue. Users can ask ChatGPT questions, engage in back-and-forth conversation, and prompt it to compose text in different styles or ge...
Sometimes, generative AI gets it wrong. When this happens, we call it a hallucination.While the latest generation of generative AI tools usually provides accurate information in response to prompts, it’s essential to check its accuracy, especially when the stakes are high and mistakes have ...
Even if a generative AI could produce output that’s hallucination-free, there are various potential negative impacts: Cheap and easy content creation: Hopefully it’s clear by now that ChatGPT and other generative AIs are not real minds capable of creative output or insight. But the truth...
However, generative AI does come with its share of drawbacks, including: Hallucination and other inaccuracies: Generative AI models are typically very good at identifying patterns, but sometimes they identify patterns that do not actually exist. This can result in the models providing false information...
For example, large language models can be prone to “hallucination,” or answering questions with plausible but untrue assertions (see sidebar “Using generative AI responsibly”). Additionally, the underlying reasoning or sources for a response are not always provided. This means companies shou...
Hallucination A hallucination is when the model makes stuff up that either doesn’t make sense or doesn’t match the information it was given. In such cases, the model answers sound plausible but are incorrect. Explainability: The key challenge of identifying a “truth” for ChatGPT is that ...
