That seems overly emotional, to lie requires intent right? It implies the will to deceive. We don't accuse people of deception when they are simply wrong after all, so it feels inappropriate to accuse a machine that is predicting the next most likely word of lieing.

- dweinberger 3y agoYes. Lying requires being able to discern truth from falsity. But LLMs don't know what's true even when they say true things. That's why "hallucinate" is a better word ... better but not perfect because for an LLM it's all hallucinations all the time. Some of those hallucinations (most of them) happen to turn out to be true.
