Expecting it to fully integrate every piece of trivia seems unfair — a lot of people would rate the first answer as reasonable. It’s fundamentally difficult to get training data that incorporates everything the model knows, rather than what the human demonstrator knows.

GPT-3 improvement shows not just pattern-matching, still hallucinates details
By
–
The point isn’t that it’s perfect, just that it’s not narrowly pattern-matching on this specific list of questions — there’s clear improvement vs. GPT-3 across many questions that contain false assumptions. It does still hallucinate details in other ways.

–
This feels like a tokenization issue — in general, it doesn’t see text as sequences of letters, and struggles with tasks that assume it does.

GPT-3 succeeds on trick questions, pre-training unchanged since 2021
By

No. It also succeeds on questions I’ve written myself that trick GPT-3, as in this screenshot. The pre-training data hasn’t been updated since 2021, and OpenAI specifically denies (in this thread) training on the Hofstadter/Bender questions.

ChatGPT reduces hallucinations, avoids false-assumption pitfalls
By
–
To be fair, they don’t claim to have solved hallucination fully, and explain why in the announcement. But it’s clearly better, and doesn’t seem to fall for these false-assumption questions that trick GPT-3. https://
