People believe many things that are foolish, ignorant, or wrong. Because people *believe things* LLMs do not believe things that are wrong, because *they do not have beliefs* They generate probable strings of words, based on the corpus of text used to train them

  The thing is, human beings also misunderstand things they've randomly picked up. Sometimes they persist in their misconceptions for years and it doesn't matter. But usually they get corrected in the normal course of interaction. The problem is the AI only has half a life, not the full experience.

  Again, @ft.com reporters or whoever else needs to hear this: "Hallucinations" are not the result of "flaws," they are literally inherent in & inextricable from what LLM systems do & are. Whether an "AI" tells you something that matches reality or something that doesn't, *it is working as designed*

  Replying to Jessica Ellis
  The data isn’t sparse, it’s not questionable, and it’s not murky. Repeat Covid infections, even if you’re vaccinated, are increasingly dangerous, and most people are not anywhere close to updated on boosters now. And long covid is cheerfully chipping away at the foundation of society.
