AI hallucinates because it’s trained to fake answers it doesn’t know Teaching chatbots to say “I don’t know” could curb hallucinations. It could also break AI’s business model

I saw this on a recent UI project. People are told to do the same—“fake it until you make it,” and AI has a corporate bias since it hasn’t yet been trained by ethical actors

Is AI eroding our critical thinking? By doing more and more of our "thinking" for us, artificial intelligence may be diminishing our critical thinking skills.

Interesting article... Is AI eroding our critical thinking, or can it improve it, and force us to think more creatively?
