But what most people took a while to realize is that this new type of chatbot often makes things up. ‌ When Google introduced a similar chatbot several weeks later, it generated meaningless data about the James Webb Space Telescope. The next day, Microsoft's new Bing chatbot offered all kinds of false information about Gap, Mexican nightlife, and singer Billie Eilish. Then, in March, ChatGPT cited a half-dozen bogus court cases while drafting a 10-page legal brief that a lawyer filed before a federal judge in Manhattan. ‌ Now , a new startup called Vectara, founded by former Google employees, is trying to find out how often chatbots deviate from the truth. The company's research estimates that even in situations designed to prevent this from happening, chatbots make up information at least 3 percent of the time and up to 27 percent. ‌ Experts call this chatbot behavior “hallucination.”
