Artificial intelligence (AI) models are being used for a variety of tasks, including software engineering and image generation. However, these models can sometimes make mistakes or "hallucinate," producing incorrect or fabricated information. For example, OpenAI's Whisper, an AI transcription tool, has been found to produce inaccurate transcriptions with made-up phrases and sentences. This is concerning because Whisper is used in many industries, including healthcare, where inaccurate information could have serious consequences. Similarly, AI models used for software engineering tasks can also make errors, highlighting the need for careful evaluation and improvement of these models. On a positive note, there...
