misinformation in Australian parliament? Golly gosh, surely not!
Misinformation from the BSGenerators from people who bought you BitCoin and Non-Fungiable Tokens? Golly gosh, surely not!
Imagine those cunts being lazy. Perish the thought.
Good article, they built an automated reference lookup to systematically identify submissions that contained hallucinated references, and also searched for submissions that brazenly included ChatGPT reference links.
The fact that we've allowed the industry to get "hallucination" into our language instead of "fabrication" or "bullshit" like it really is, is sad.
Beyond sad. It is a threat to the running of government, to policy making, and ultimately to citizens. Who/what surveills AI? More AI?
New humans will continue to do research though face references.
Misinformation?
Well, they've had Sky News in there for decades, so they should be used to it
