The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the EU’s data-protection law, requires accuracy in processing personal data. But generative-AI services, such as large language models (LLM), may “hallucinate” or reflect information that is false but widely spread.
On one hand, such inaccuracies may seem like an inherent feature of the technology. On the other, some major LLM providers aspire to make their products more accurate, and perhaps even to “organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful,” to borrow Google’s famous mission statement.
