AI Hallucinations

“Let's vectorize petabytes of data and hope we can figure it out. That's when hallucinations happen. That's when other issues happen. So there needs to be some structure around it.”

“I think it's old news. And I think the only reason we still talk about it, it's like everyone talks about hallucinations and, you know, no one knows if it's happening or what's going on. It's like fugazi fugazi. Like, it was a problem back when the models were…”
