AI hallucinations
AI tools sometimes give answers that sound correct but are actually wrong. This is called a "hallucination". The AI is not lying on purpose — it just guesses the next words based on patterns.
- Always check important facts with a trusted source (book, teacher, official website).
- Ask the AI: "Give me your sources." Then open those sources yourself.
- Be extra careful with names, dates, numbers, and medical or legal advice.
