The AI gave me a polished answer today. It was also not supported by the source.

Image showing Quality vs Factuality
A confident answer is not automatically a grounded answer.

What I did today:

I gave the model a short reference document and asked a question about it. Then I checked every important claim against the actual text.

What surprised me:

The answer sounded trustworthy even when it added details the source never mentioned.

My QA takeaway:

  1. Confidence is not evidence. Grounding needs its own test.
  2. A confident answer is not automatically a grounded answer.

How do you currently spot unsupported claims in AI output?
