PRACTICAL TIPS & TRICKS

🛠 Practical Tips & Tricks: Fix Hallucinations in AI Outputs

🤯 AI writing something that sounds smart - but is totally wrong? That’s called a hallucination, and it’s more common than you think.

Here’s how to reduce it and get more accurate AI responses:

✅ Ask for sources
→ Add: “Cite your sources” or “Include links to where you got this info.”
Most models will reference known facts or admit when they’re unsure.

✅ Prompt it to slow down
→ Use: “Let’s think step by step”
This forces the AI to reason logically instead of rushing to an answer.

✅ Cross-check with Perplexity.ai
→ Run the same prompt through Perplexity.ai to compare results and spot inconsistencies.

📌 Hallucinations can’t always be avoided - but with these tools and tactics, you’ll get smarter, more reliable outputs from any AI model.

CONTENT & NEWS CORNER

1/ OpenAI ditched its for-profit push, saying it will convert its existing for-profit arm into a PBC but keep its non-profit in control with a majority stake.

This comes after pressure from several ex-employees and an ongoing legal battle.

2/ OpenAI also launched a GitHub connector for ChatGPT.

The feature will allow users to connect their repos and use ChatGPT's Deep Research to read and search source code and PRs, creating a detailed report with citations.

3/ Google updated two key models:

—Gemini 2.5 Pro Preview (I/O Edition), with video understanding and improvements for UI, code, and agentic workflows.

—Gemini 2.0 Flash image generation with improved quality, text rendering, and fewer content restrictions.

4/ Ex-Google CEO Eric Schmidt-backed FutureHouse dropped five 'AI Scientist' agents:

—Crow for general research

—Falcon for deep literature reviews

—Owl for identifying previous research

—Phoenix for chemistry workflows

—Finch for discovery in biology.

5/ An email from Fiverr CEO to his team about AI ($1b company):

6/ Figma introduces ‘vibe-coding' AI software design feature.

7/ Safari searches just dropped for the first time in 22 years and Apple exec Eddy Cue says AI is to blame. During the DOJ’s antitrust trial against Google, Cue revealed Apple is exploring a Safari revamp to prioritize AI search tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude. While Google remains the default (and pays Apple ~$19B for it), Cue admitted AI search is “so much better” that users may shift even if it means ditching traditional search entirely.
