Has the hallucination problem in AI been solved?

1•spl757•55m ago
My understanding that all AI can, and will hallucinate. I get downvoted for saying this, but no one ever says I'm wrong or cites any source. Perhaps it's more nuanced than that? Please, enlighten me.

I think its solved, with the right setup and model. I couldn't tell u the last time my agent hallucinated. For me I consider it solved. However some dude feeding massive docs into gpt chat and long conversations, It is not solved in this context.

Would you trust it to make life and death decisions? Because it is being used in that context. Drones with AI, armed, and with discretion to choose a target and kill it.

I'm hoping for more than anecdotes. I believe AI is not ready for what it's being used for, but all I get are downvotes and no citations. Maybe all of you are just scared to say it out loud?
