Hey — It's Sandip Das 👋
We should learn AI safety, hallucinations, and trust because production AI is not just about calling a model API, it is about building reliable systems with validation, observability, guardrails, and fallback controls.
Just like any critical infrastructure, AI can fail in subtle but confident ways, so engineers must design platforms that reduce risk, enforce trust, and keep AI-powered applications safe for real users.

When anyone say an AI “lies”, that does not mean the model has human intent to deceive!
In most production systems, this is what we call a hallucination, it is a confident sounding output that is incorrect, unsupported, mis
