Large language models (LLMs) can generate inaccurate or harmful information, as demonstrated by two recent cases. In one instance, Air Canada's chatbot provided incorrect bereavement fare information, leading to a lawsuit and damages awarded to a customer. In another, an attorney used ChatGPT to draft a legal brief that cited non-existent court cases, resulting in a fine. These incidents highlight the critical need for LLM guardrails, which are constraints designed to validate inputs and outputs, preventing AI systems from lying, leaking data, or being manipulated. AI
