# AI hallucination

AI hallucination

When an AI model states something false or made up as if it were true.

## What is AI hallucination?

Hallucinations are reduced by **grounding** answers in approved sources, requiring evidence before claiming an action succeeded, and letting the AI say "I don't know."
