  Same is true of Google search “summaries” where quite often I click on the link provided and it doesn’t support the statement Google made.BTW, this post would be more convincing if it wasn’t written in Claude voice itself!

  I noticed this personally. Saw a citation with a preview for source A, which I knew was reliable. Checked, and it referenced a Reddit article and various other less reliable sources. Was a direct citation too that actually wasn't.

  If you are building your own harness that does correct citations, is the correct thing to give AI access to some deterministic tool that allows it to actually copy paste parts of documents its reading (with links), rather than stochastic reproduction that they do by default?

  100% my experience with this service. The intent is good, but it seems they're still in the "fake it until you make it" stage.

  This is why lawyers have been getting in trouble using AI to review case law or (worse) to generate documents.It creates citations and references that look close enough to be plausible but are just made up of thin air. CA passed a law explicitly requiring lawyers to review AI-generated documents that is now before the governor for signing (previously, lawyers were ethically expected to review documents submitted to the court or provided to clients but that doesn't have the same level of force as an explicit requirement).

  I felt that myself. And I have the same problem with gemini

  My favorite is hallucinated slop with sources that 404.

  "The unit above is the citation, not the claim." The RPM of the slop ouroboros ever rises.

  That's the one that powers Truth SocialTrump Media and Technology Group announced that it partnered with Perplexity to test and integrate an AI search feature, referred to as Truth Social AI or Truth Search AI, directly into the Truth Social platform.(I just use the free account from truth+ to waste their money)how do you reverse a linked list in pythonAnswers Sources Use either an iterative pointer-reversal approach or a recursive approach. The standard iterative version is the most common and runs in (O(n)) time with (O(1)) extra space:class ListNode: def __init__(self, val=0, next=None): self.val = val self.next = nextdef reverse_list(head): prev = None curr = head while curr: nxt = curr.next curr.next = prev prev = curr curr = nxt return prev If you already have a Python list, reversing it is simpler with slicing: items[::-1], but that is not a linked list reversal.

  This plus AI just citing AI slop. Theres a real downward spiral unfolding with the quality of information available on the internet.
