MAIN COURSE

How to stop AI hallucinations🛢️🔥

Picture this — AI tells Little Timmy about the Eiffel Tower. It says it’s made of ice cream. You say it isn’t. It gaslights you like your narcissistic ex. It hallucinates (makes stuff up).

Who cares?

Hallucinations are funny until they're not. AI systems muscle their way into our homes, cars, offices, and governments. The line becomes blurred. Who’s accountable when our digital assistants spew lies? Skynet vibes. Hasta la vista, baby.

Oh dear, what will we do?

I got you. Kapa.ai shared insights from over 100 companies on how to prevent these hallucinations.

Why do AI models lie?

AI models guess words without understanding them, can't fact-check themselves, and have limited memory.

What's the real-world impact?

  • Legal trouble: A lawyer got fined for using ChatGPT's fake court cases.

  • PR disasters: Google's Bard made up facts about space telescopes.

  • Customer issues: Air Canada's chatbot invented refund policies.

Remember when Google’s AI told people to drink urine, eat rocks, and put glue in pizza?

How do we fix this?

There are 3 main strategies:

  1. Better input: Give AI clearer questions and context.

  2. Smarter design: Use fact-checking and memory systems.

  3. Output filters: Verify answers before showing them.

What's next?

New research shows AI might “know” more truth than we thought. We just need better ways to access it.

SIDE SALAD

Your tax dollars just armed AI💸🤖

Palantir and Anduril announced a partnership to collect and process battlefield data for military AI systems.

What's the plan?

Combine Anduril's field computers with Palantir's AI platform to capture valuable military data that's currently being lost.

Who's funding this?

Both companies just landed huge contracts:

  • Palantir: $480M for Maven system

  • Anduril: $100M for data integration

Why now?

The military generates massive amounts of useful data that could train AI, but most of it goes uncollected.

How will it work?

Anduril's systems collect data from military equipment in the field, then feed it into Palantir's AI platform.

Why do I care?

This could speed up the Pentagon's AI adoption by solving a key problem: getting real battlefield data into AI systems.

Anything else?

They're inviting other companies to join their “consortium” approach to military AI.

What else has Palantir and Anduril done?

In September, we covered Microsoft and Anduril Industries’ partnership. The goal was to upgrade the U.S. Army's mixed-reality headsets, known as IVAS.

In October, we reported on Anduril Industries’ Bolt drones. They’re compact, AI-powered drones designed for military surveillance and strike missions.
