Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • Bias amplification

    Why it's wrong here

    Bias amplification refers to the model exaggerating existing biases in the data, not generating false information.

  • Overfitting

    Why it's wrong here

    Overfitting is when a model memorizes training data but performs poorly on unseen data, not necessarily generating false information.

  • Hallucination

    Why this is correct

    Hallucination is the correct term for when an LLM produces plausible-sounding but factually incorrect content.

  • Concept drift

    Why it's wrong here

    Concept drift refers to changes in the underlying data distribution over time, not model output errors.
