I would say it’s worse than Google search. Google tells you when it can’t find what you are looking for. LLMs “guess” a bullshit answer.
- Closi 3y agoNot always, I think that is an unfair reflection of LLM's in their current state. See two trivial examples below: https://chat.openai.com/share/ca733a4a-7cdb-4515-abd0-0444a4c1a948 https://chat.openai.com/share/ca733a4a-7cdb-4515-abd0-0444a4... https://chat.openai.com/share/dced0cb7-b6c3-4c85-bc16-cdbf22305560 https://chat.openai.com/share/dced0cb7-b6c3-4c85-bc16-cdbf22... Hallucinations are definitely a problem, but they are certainly less than they used to be - They will often say that they aren't sure but can speculate, or "it might be because..." etc.
- TerrifiedMouse 3y agoI get the feeling that LLMs will tell you they don’t know if “I don’t know” is one of the responses in their training data set. If they actually don’t know, i.e. no trained responses, that’s when they start hallucinating.
