Your comment seems to have little to do with the article?

Don't get me wrong - I personally "trust" an LLM as a source of facts about as far as I could throw a rack of GPUs. But this article you linked takes a whole lot of words to cast LLMs as the villian for amplifying a bit of bad information originally published by a usually reliable and widely-cited source:

"In short, either Phoronix mocked up the screenshots to demonstrate what the feature could look like, or perhaps they were testing a preview snapshot for FreeBSD 15.1 which was never shipped. Either way, it looks like other blogs and reviewers picked up on this and shared the information, presenting it as a feature which would be (or was included) in FreeBSD's latest version."

Lying involves intent whereas hallucinations and mistakes are an artifact of how they work. Humans hallucinate, make mistakes, and can actually lie. We've been dealing with this forever. What's the value in requiring the llms to have 100% accuracy? (I don't think it is possible)
