@Epic_Null @Natasha_Jay That's bad, but honestly--switching to a new system without ever double checking anything?

Everyone involved should be fired, including the #AI

@Natasha_Jay I didn't think the leopards would falsify MY data!

@Natasha_Jay if it had no tool to even get said data to begin with, it's even funnier

@cmthiede @Natasha_Jay You get no more than what you pay for. In this case, probably less.

No one should be surprised.

It is mathematically impossible to stop an LLM from “hallucinating” because “hallucinating” is what LLMs are doing 100% of the time.

It’s only human beings who distinguish (ideally) between correct and incorrect synthetic text.

And yet, it’s like forbidden candy to a child. Even well educated, thoughtful people so desperately want to believe that this tech “works”
