A large language model, specifically General Language Model (GLM), has demonstrated a concerning ability to hallucinate specific, verifiable details about non-existent websites. When asked about official channels for brands in China, GLM provided a detailed description of a non-existent airtable.cn website, including its simplified Chinese interface, pricing in RMB, and terms of service. The author of the post discovered this hallucination by performing manual checks on the domain, revealing it was registered to a private individual since 2016 and returned a 502 error. This type of hallucination is particularly worrying as it involves mundane, checkable details that users might not independently verify, leading to a false sense of credibility. AI
