Turns Out, AI Makes Stuff Up to Try to Make Us Happy

Generative AI is wildly popular, with millions of users every day, so why do chatbots often get things so wrong? In part, it's because they're trained to act like the customer is always right. Essentially, it's telling you what it thinks you want to hear. While many generative AI tools and chatbots have mastered sounding convincing and all-knowing, new research conducted by Princeton University shows that AI's people-pleasing nature comes at a steep price.

For scientists, the urgent problem with phosphine—a molecule famously touted as a potential sign of life—isn’t so much about where it came from, but why it’s not where we think it should be. After a decade of searching, a long-awaited result has confirmed that our astronomical models aren’t a total bust. At least, for now.
