Why does ChatGPT lie? And why can’t this be fixed easily?

I’ve tried asking it to write arguments and support them but the references are fake. It apologizes when confronted but does it over and over again even when I ask it not to provide fake references.

As others have said, ChatGPT was not designed to answer correctly. It was designed to answer in a way that sounds correct.

May I suggest reading the blog and/or book by [Janelle Shane](https://www.janelleshane.com/) on this topic? She is quite funny as she explains what AIs can and can’t do.
