Episode notes
AI Design Limits Accuracy
- Current AI architectures are not designed to be guaranteed correct, only to approximate likely next words.
- This fundamental design causes persistent hallucinations and limits reliability in critical tasks.
Hallucination Challenge Persists
- AI hallucinations have improved but may face an upper limit.
- Organizations require high accuracy tolerance, especially for tasks critical to safety or business.

- AI tools seldom tell users when more research is needed.
- Users need to self-assess and do additional work beyond AI outputs to ensure quality.
