Can you give an example of a "wrong" answer vs an "hallucinated" answer?

• omikun 2y ago
  The issue is there is no difference between a right answer and a hallucinated answer.

  there are many types of a wrong answer, and the difference is based on how the answer came to be. In case of BS/Hallucination there is no reason or logic behind the answer it is basically, in the case of LLM, just random text. There was no reasoning behind the output or it wasn't based on facts. You can argue if it matters how a wrong answer came about ofc but there is a difference

  Wrong is code that doesn’t compile. Hallucinated is compilable code using a library that never existed.

    Can code using a library that doesn't exist compile? I admit ignorance here.

      No it can't, I should have said code that has valid syntax, but are using APIs or libraries that don't exist.
