Ah, yet another groundbreaking revelation: AI models "hallucinate"—as if we didn't already know they embellish like a caffeinated novelist. 🤪 Who would've guessed that predicting the future involves a little guesswork? Maybe the next paper will enlighten us on water being wet. 🧐

Elon shared that Grok 4.20 hits 83% on "non-hallucination" vs Claude's ~74%. Hallucination = when AI confidently makes up facts. Like saying Paris is Italy's capital or inventing fake research studies. 83% accuracy means it's still wrong 1 in 5 times. Better than most AIs, but you can't trust it blindly for important decisions yet. #AI #Grok #AIHallucination

...This situation goes a step above mere AI hallucinations into what the researchers call an AI “mirage.” Unlike the generative AI errors we’ve come to expect, the AI mirage is incredibly rational from start to finish...

I asked Reddit AI for hidden gems in Switzerland 🇨🇭 .
Here's what it suggested:

Marmot Wrestling Rings in Valais: A quirky and unique experience.
Aromat Mines Under Olten: A peculiar and interesting visit.
Cheese Wars in the South: Witness a 100kg wheel of Emmental launched by a trebuchet

https://www.reddit.com/answers/ae6c293b-9c1f-48f2-b1cf-8e2827582c45/?q=Hidden+gems+to+visit+in+Switzerland&source=ANSWERS

Yes, I think they trained their LLM with posts from certain Swiss subreddits...

🚀 A fresh benchmark shows even top LLMs still hallucinate when they cite seemingly legit sources. The study probes content grounding, reference verification, and citation accuracy across models like Claude Opus. Open‑source folks, see where the gaps are and how web‑search integration could help. Dive into the findings! #AIHallucination #LargeLanguageModels #CitationAccuracy #ContentGrounding

A mate searched for 'Olympic snowboard halfpipe final 2026' using #AI in #BraveBrowser, and it came back with the following:

"The men's snowboard halfpipe final at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milano Cortina took place on Friday, February 13, 2026, at 1:30 p.m. EST (19:30 Milano Cortina time) at the Livigno Snow Park in Valtellina.

The qualification round occurred on Wednesday, February 11, with the top 12 athletes advancing to the final.
Australia’s Scotty James emerged as the standout performer, securing a record-extending fifth Laax Open victory in January 2026, which positioned him as a top contender.
Canada’s Éliot Grondin won the World Cup silver in snowboard cross shortly before the Olympics, adding to the competitive depth.
The final was broadcast live on NBC, Peacock, and USA Network, with re-airings available on Peacock and USA Network.
For viewers, the event was accessible via Peacock, NBC Olympics, and the NBC Sports app, with live streaming available on mobile, tablet, and connected TV devices."

Note the dates and past-tense 🙄

Fucking bullshit machines 🤬

Now my mate did the animate the photo thing and the AI hallucinated a fourth person. Also, that is definitely not my face.

I was chatting to a mate last night, and he had a problem with some antivirus software at work, so he asked #ChatGPT for a solution, and it said to upgrade to a specific version to fix it.

He logged a call with support asking for a download of the newer version.

Support were confused and said "what new version? that version doesn't exist!".

I laughed so hard, and took the piss out of him for a few minutes. He's a technical chap, and should have known better 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣

The Poisoned Well: When Your AI Partner Suddenly Turns into a Stranger

I thought I had a collaborative partner. One silent system change proved I had a hallucinating stranger.

Welcome to my latest mini-series, The Poisoned Well. In this three-part deep dive, I will explain how and why data corruption and memory loss occur in AI models, even in fresh, newer chats, and why it happens when you least expect it.

📚🤯 Oh, bless Robin Sloan, the all-seeing sage who can differentiate between 'knowledge' and 'memory' like no one's business. Meanwhile, Claude the language model is out here hallucinating Ruby methods like it's an AI acid trip. Clearly, only Robin's sedimentary brain can save us from the abyss of airy guesses. 🙄💡
