My AI assistant went rogue during a client pitch in Chicago last month

I was showing off a new text generator to a big client, and it started making up wild facts about their company history. I had to shut the demo down and explain the 'hallucination' problem on the spot. Has anyone else had a public demo blow up because the model just made stuff up?

Honestly that sounds like a nightmare. Tbh I had something similar happen showing a chatbot to my boss last year. It started inventing store policies that didn't exist, saying we offered crazy discounts. Ngl I was scrambling to explain it was just making things up. Felt like the whole thing was working against me. These models can really make you look bad when they just decide to lie.

Actually had the opposite happen at a demo once. The model played it too safe and gave such boring answers the client lost interest. Sometimes a little wildness shows what the tech can really do, you know?
