OpenAI says GPT-5.3 Instant's tone should feel less "cringe" than GPT-5.2 Instant and has a smoother, more to-the-point conversational style (Marcus Schuler/Implicator.ai)

OpenAI Ships GPT-5.3 Instant With 27% Fewer Hallucinations and a Less Preachy Tone
GPT-5.3 Instant replaces ChatGPT's default model with up to 26.8% fewer hallucinations, reduced refusals, and a less defensive tone.

Tl;dr: LLMs are shit at citations.

AI Translations Are Adding ‘Hallucinations’ to Wikipedia Articles
AI translated articles swapped sources or added unsourced sentences with no explanation, while others added paragraphs sourced from completely unrelated material.

"#Wikipedia editors have implemented new policies and restricted a number of contributors who were paid to use AI to translate existing Wikipedia articles into other languages after they discovered these AI translations added AI “hallucinations,” or errors, to the resulting article."

In addition to the many things I didn't like about the Natural History Museum in London, one thing I especially disliked is a huge wall given to showing *constellations* (or, as I prefer to think of them, "old-school hallucinations"). Let's have some actual science, people.

"Oil price falls and markets rally after Trump says Iran war over in ‘two to three weeks’".
Well as surely as this latest bon-mot is to be contradicted by Trump or events on the ground within the next few days or hours, how long before we find out which insiders had front-run the market on this latest hallucination?
