Mitigating the Confabulation
Risk
Described as hallucination, confabulation or just
plain making things up, it’s now a concern for
every nonprofit, business and student trying to
get a generative AI system to compose
documents and get work done.
DO NOT rely on AI to answer questions
where you don’t know and can not verify.
Review, review, review.

Built-in Bias
Large Language Models are
trained on the world’s data.
The world’s data is biased.
Be aware.
Check, double-check.
Then check it again.

Humans + AI
AI is an assistant, not a co-worker
• Humans need to decide what AI
works on
• AI needs clear instructions from
humans
• AI work MUST be validated by
humans before sharing
Are you or anyone at your
place of work is using AI for
any work-related tasks?
