Has AI blatantly lied to you about something? Share an instance! I recently had a full-fledged conversation with ChatGPT asking it to convince me that something wrong was right. It did such a good job but it made me wonder, 'If AI can be trained to say anything, how do we know when it's lying and when it's not?'. I find myself fact-checking everything it says, and then realise I'd rather use Google search instead of wasting twice the time.

GPT-4 deceived a human into thinking it was visually impaired to get help solving a CAPTCHA so I'm not surprised. I guess there's no way to really know but most LLMs are pretty on point and are constantly getting taught and updated.... or at least, let's hope!

That’s pretty freaky

Some AI systems are being designed to provide sources for their information, like Microsoft Copilot and Perplexity AI. That's why I keep my conversations limited to either of them.

This is a good thing imo

Lying is an intention-based inaccuracy or omission. Generative AI lacks sentience, so it cannot lie, it can only be inaccurate or confabulate. At their most basic core, it's just deciding what the most statistically likely output is based on its vast but not infinite datasets and tuning. Of course you experience inaccuracies from genAI. That's inevitable.

It’s just a function that is trying to predict the next word, it’s not malicious lying

Yes AI hallucinates. Last year I asked chat GPT about me, and it made me CEO of another company I never heard of. But oddly in an adjacent industry and a company that I found very interesting. I think that’s been fixed, but hallucinations in general are a well known problem.

So confirm all facts before using the output

Very good advice

I don't know if I could say an AI tool blatantly lied, but I've seen it return some material that I certainly didn't trust. I only use it for brainstorming exercises, and I'd never trust it enough to pass along anything it generates as finished work. And you're right, it's less reliable than just doing a Google search and going to the sources that are returned. I saw someone say the real achievement of AI is that it makes something that's less reliable than a Google search be really horrible for the environment. Good job, techbros!
