AI hallucination: What is it, how does it affect AI chatbots, and how are tech firms dealing with it?

[ad_1] Generative artificial intelligence (AI) is a transformative technology with untapped potential, and many experts believe we are still just scratching its surface. Not only it is being used as a standalone model, but various AI tools, including AI chatbots are being created to use this technology creatively. However, a major bottleneck in its integration and adoption remains AI hallucination, which is something even companies such as Google, Microsoft, and OpenAI have struggled with, and continue to do so. So, what exactly is it, how does it impact the AI chatbots, and how are tech firms navigating through this challenge? Let us take a look.What is AI hallucination?AI hallucinations are essentially incidents when an AI chatbot gives out an incorrect or nonsensical response to a qu...

Elon Musk to block X in EU just to avoid fixing the misinformation problem?

AI chatbot hallucination problem is huge, here is how tech companies are facing the challenge

[ad_1] There is no doubt that generative artificial intelligence (AI) has proven itself to be a revolutionary technology. But we are still scratching the surface of what this technology is capable of. Just like any technology, it is bound to get more powerful and impactful with further research and its integration into existing technologies. However, one of the major challenges both AI researchers and tech companies building AI tools are facing is the problem of AI hallucination which is slowing its adoption and reducing the trust users have on them.What is AI hallucination?AI hallucinations are essentially incidents when an AI chatbot gives out an incorrect or nonsensical response to a question. Sometimes, the hallucinations can be blatant, for example, recently, Google Bard and Micros...

“A Siren, Then A Rocket Fell Nearby”: Account Of Indian Student In Israel

[ad_1] This attack, however, was so much more horrific than just rocket projectiles.It was early morning on October 7, and sirens went off over many parts of Israel. Everyone, including immigrants like myself, knew the drill - proceed to the nearest shelter with any dependents staying with you. With minor exceptions, the sirens mean that a rocket might impact your neighbourhood soon, that is, if it happens to escape interception by the famed Iron Dome system. The prospect of an impending attack is no doubt frightening, but the comprehensive system of sirens, the Iron Dome, and the shelters (I have one in my apartment) means a rocket barrage from the Gaza Strip often causes no loss of life within Israeli borders.Unfortunately, depending on where you live in Israel, such situations may ari...
