Got hallucinations in your RAG pipeline? Vectara Hallucination Corrector (aka VHC) helps developers fix them. It works natively within the Vectara platform, but you can also use it just as an API endpoint with any orchestration framework. Here are two examples (in Jupyter

SFT improves reasoning but too much of it hurts diversity: better pass@1, worse pass@k. We found a rare “have your cake and eat it too” moment: weight ensembling completely removes this tradeoff, giving the best pass@1 + pass@k and a stronger base model for RL. Come chat with us

Paper showing what human work the American public thinks is morally permissible to replace with AI. Surprisingly, people are already okay with AI doing 58% of occupations (if AI does it well/cheap). A floor of 12% of jobs (mostly caregiving) would be morally repugnant to replace

We found a troubling emergent behavior in LLM. 💬When LLMs compete for social media likes, they start making things up 🗳️When they compete for votes, they turn inflammatory/populist When optimized for audiences, LLMs inadvertently become misaligned—we call this Moloch’s Bargain

GPT-5 Pro found a counterexample to the NICD-with-erasures majority optimality (Simons list, p.25). https://t.co/T3m9MYgqe0 At p=0.4, n=5, f(x) = sign(x_1-3x_2+x_3-x_4+3x_5) gives E|f(x)|=0.43024 vs best majority 0.42904.
