AI hallucination

An AI hallucination is generated output that presents false, invented or unsupported information as if it were valid

What it means, how it is used and where it comes up, with its related concepts.

It can appear in data, quotations, explanations or references. Detecting it requires checking the content against appropriate sources and criteria. Controls depend on the risk of the task; confident, convincing wording is not a measure of accuracy.
