How are you planning to prevent it from sharing false, hallucinated information?

I find that it does that a lot. Try asking ChatGPT about someone you know something about and see how much stuff it makes up. In cases I've checked, it makes up a lot.

One solution is placing the ChatGPT response in another model that determines the accuracy of the information and revises where necessary
It’s kind of amazing how much it hallucinates. Using GPT4, I asked it to generate a letter contesting a parking fine using examples from case law (and links to URLs). Not a single case actually existed. (Tested across multiple regens) It had hallucinated the docket numbers, parties to the case, everything.

There’s no way I could trust a LLM with study materials unless I was confident it wasn’t going to fuck me over
