INSIGHT

Hallucinations as Design Side Effects

  • AI hallucinations are not accidental glitches but side effects of model design focused on plausibility over truth.
  • LLMs predict statistically likely language sequences without true factual understanding.
INSIGHT

Error Cascades Cause Fabrications

  • Early errors in token prediction can cascade, creating complete fabrications.
  • The probabilistic word-by-word generation process can deviate from reality, especially with ambiguous or insufficient data.
INSIGHT

Risks of Model Collapse

  • Training AI on AI-generated data risks model collapse, degrading data quality and factual grounding over time.
  • This feedback loop threatens the reliability of future AI generations.
