Addressing Hallucinations in AI

AI hallucinations occur when large language models (LLMs) generate incorrect or fabricated information that appears plausible. These hallucinations can lead to misinformation and erode customer trust, posing risks for businesses using generative AI tools. To mitigate these risks, strategies such as retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), prompt engineering, intentional handling of highly critical data, and human-in-the-loop approaches can be employed. Twilio AI Assistants incorporates features to reduce hallucinations and enhance the reliability of customer communications.
