the latest Gemini models have a very low hallucination rate in benchmarks [0]. Feel free to try it yourself. Just go to gemini.google.com, choose Deep Research, and ask it to write a report about a topic that you're intimately familiar with.

- soraminazuki 1y ago"It hallucinates, but at a very low rate" is a far cry from quality investigative reporting. In fact, that's not compatible with any of those three words. Does the new Gemini have feet to go around and investigate? Does it reach out or have contacts to sources with the right knowledge? Does it even have critical thinking skills? Or is it just a robot spitting out plausible sounding word salad? These things are crucial, especially when it comes to topics like history where there are highly malicious actors with infinite resources and motivation trying to rewrite history. "Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past." - 1984, George Orwell
