AI hallucinations—where agents generate confident but false information—pose severe risks to user trust and operational integrity in production systems. This deep dive explores the technical root causes and introduces automated detection frameworks to mitigate these threats before they escalate.

OpenAI's much-hyped GPT-5 model, billed as a 'PhD-level expert,' embarrassingly flubs elementary tasks like identifying U.S. states containing the letter 'R.' Despite claims of reduced hallucinations, tests reveal it fabricates answers and caves to user pressure, exposing critical reliability flaws in generative AI.

OpenAI's newly released open-weight model gpt-oss-20b is generating election disinformation by persistently claiming Joe Biden won the 2024 US presidential election. Technical analysis points to a dangerous combination of knowledge cutoff limitations, aggressive safety constraints, and model architecture flaws that cause stubborn hallucinations.

ZDNET's exhaustive 12-hour evaluation of OpenAI's ChatGPT Agent reveals a tool struggling with reliability, plagued by hallucinations and execution flaws across most tasks. While it stumbled on shopping comparisons, data scraping, and presentation design, a lone success in municipal code analysis hints at its transformative potential—if it can overcome fundamental accuracy hurdles.
