Large language models (LLMs) often exhibit undesirable behaviors, such as hallucinations and sequence repetitions. We propose to view these behaviors as fallbacks that models exhibit under epistemic uncertainty, and investigate the…

Large language models (LLMs) hallucinate: they produce fluent outputs that are factually incorrect. We present a geometric dynamical systems framework in which hallucinations arise from task-dependent basin structure in latent space. Using…

Large Language Models (LLMs) exhibit impressive linguistic competence but also produce inaccurate or fabricated outputs, often called ``hallucinations''. Engineering approaches usually regard hallucination as a defect to be minimized, while…
