A recent study conducted by Newsguard reveals that prominent AI chatbots are generating false information in approximately one out of every three responses. The analysis assessed the accuracy of the ten most widely used artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots currently available.

Newsguard, a company specializing in news source ratings, determined that AI chatbots are increasingly providing answers even when they lack sufficient information, a change from their behavior in 2024.
