Hallucination

AI Hallucination refers to a phenomenon in artificial intelligence systems where models generate false, misleading, or entirely fabricated information that appears plausible but has no basis in their training data or reality. This occurs when AI systems, particularly large language models and generative AI, produce confident-sounding responses that contain factual errors, invented citations, non-existent events,

Heuristic search

Heuristic Search refers to problem-solving algorithms that use informed strategies and domain-specific knowledge to efficiently find solutions in large search spaces, employing “rules of thumb” or educated guesses to guide exploration toward promising areas rather than exhaustively examining all possibilities. These techniques combine systematic search methods with intelligent shortcuts, enabling artificial intelligence systems to solve
