Brian & AI: Hallucinations in the Wild

For over half a century, I’ve worked with numbers—numbers that mattered. As an actuary, entrepreneur, and consultant, I helped cities plan retirements, guided businesses through risk, and built systems that made things clearer. But in 2023, I typed a new kind of question into something called ChatGPT. And I’ve asked more than five thousand since. What I discovered was astonishing. Artificial intelligence could be helpful… insightful… even brilliant. But it could also hallucinate—completely invent facts, people, even laws—and deliver them with total confidence. . Not to shame it. But to help us all become better digital thinkers. And then I launched the podcast: Brian & AI: Hallucinations in the Wild. It’s not just for techies—it’s for everyone. For the curious. The cautious. The questioners. Because in a world where machines talk like humans, we need to know when they’re telling the truth—and when they’re not. I'm Brian Demsey.
