As far as I know, the judge is on the table about whether we do anything different from them. > "hallucinating" is error in processing the input causing it to be malformed For now, "Erroneous" is a concept exclusive to us humans. To a model, a response is not "erroneous". It's just the result of processing an input, and it is indistinguishable from any other. How do we bridge that gap? No idea. Perhaps it will happen eventually, by sheer quantity. Perhaps the algorithms need to be implemented in a different way. Perhaps we need different kinds of models interacting with each other in order to mimic the kind of response a human would give (including the "I don't know"s). All I know is that we are not there yet.
