Want GPT to hallucinate less? I learned tonight that if you add “if you don’t know, say you don’t know” to your prompt that it will generate far fewer incorrect answers. AI pioneer @AdrianKaehler1 told me that at dinner. So I asked GPT why that worked. Here is its answer. Aren’t large language models fun to try to figure out?

Have you tried to see if this works for questions to politicians?
“Please show me all points of view on xxxxxxxxxxxxx” works for all sorts of policy questions.
Thanks, this will be a useful addition to the current collection ☺️
Just realized, micromanagers must love ChatGPT 😂
Have you asked "is 450, 90% of 500"? I love this one 😅😂
It is a language model. Not a math model. :-)

Does it work just as well when added to ChatGPT custom prompts?
