OpenAI admits AI hallucinations are mathematically inevitable, not just engineering flaws

In a landmark study, OpenAI researchers reveal that large language models will always produce plausible but false outputs, even with perfect data, due to fundamental statistical and computational limits.

Tried asking a Large Lying Model (LLM) something about firewall configuration on Ubiquity network devices in combination with WireGuard VPN.

I was very specific about which device it was, which software version it was running and what I wanted to achieve. The models answered confidently, but the answers were all complete garbage and simply wrong.
