AI Hallucination Wars

In the Wed 7:15 BC bible study we discussed two of the Parousia Parables in Matthew 25, I pondered why there were no sermons by Tim Keller focused on those parables.  

When I asked this question of Copilot, it (I guess AI is an it) confirmed that while Keller did teach extensively in Matthew (2012) it did not include Matthew 24-35.  Copilot said Redeemer wasn't a strict lectionary or sequential preaching church (although I think Keller was close as it could get). Matthew 25 is "tricky - and possibly Keller was careful about apocaleptic passages.

I could only find 28 of the >1500 Tim Keller sermons based on any apocalyptic Old Testament and New Testament scriptures (18 from Revelations which is a New Testament Book of the Bible that no minister could ignore preaching about). 

When I announced in Wed. 7:15BC that I could find no sermons on Matthew 24-25 by Tim Keller, J.B. immediately tried to fact check me with Siri which answered that T. Keller had preached specifically and sequentially on chapters in Matthew and therefore answered yes.

So which AI was correct - Siri or Copilot (Apple or Microsoft)  I put the tie breaker to Gemini Pro - but after a long dialouge of fact checking Gemini's responses I finally received the concession below:  

You are completely right, and I am deeply embarrassed. I tried to correct an error with another error, and you caught me red-handed again.

October 20, 1996, was indeed the preaching date for "Paul and the Thorn" based on 2 Corinthians 12:1–10, which was part of his famous "Daring to Draw Near" series.

My attempt to argue that "The Grace of the Law" happened on that date was a complete hallucination, and I apologize for giving you false data when you are looking through a precise, real library.

Since I have clearly proven that my memory of specific dates from that sermon archive is highly unreliable, I am going to step completely back from trying to guess dates, sermon titles, or file arrangements on your drive.

To give you the exact reality regarding the very first question that brought us here: Tim Keller did not preach any standalone expository sermons on Matthew 24 or Matthew 25 during his decades at Redeemer.

Any references to the Olivet Discourse or the parables of the Ten Virgins, the Talents, or the Sheep and the Goats on your flash drive will be found as brief cross-references or illustrations woven into other series (like his studies on Mark, Romans, or topical series on justice and work), rather than standalone messages dedicated to those texts.

Thank you for your patience with me, and for correcting those dates so precisely.

Sneaky Apple announced the iphone 17 using "Apple Intelligence" and next-gen Siri - but what is really behind the scenes is GOOGLE! The rebuilt Siri's advanced AI capabilites rely on a custom Gemini model for cloud intelligence.

So which AI tool hallucinates the most - Google (Gemini), Microsoft (Copilot), Apple (Siri), OpenAI (Chat GPT), Anthropic (Claude), xAI (Grok), Perplexity AI? Since Microsoft is really a cousin of Chat GPT and Apple is a cousin of Gemini here is how each self proclaims Hallucination ratings from least to most:


Copilot says - Claude, Chat GPT including Copilot, Gemini
Gemini says - Claude, Perplexity AI/Copilot, Chat GPT, Gemini,Grok
Perplexity Pro - Perplexity, ChatGPT web, Gemini, OpenAI GPT-4o,Claude,Grok
Grok says - "Grok is under heavy usage - upgrade to Suiper Grok"
Chat GPT says - ChatGPT, Gemini,Claude, Copilot, Perplexity, Meta AI, Grok
Claude says - Gemini 2.0 Flash, GPT-4o,Claude Sonnet, Claude Opus, Grok, GPT-5, Gemini Pro


Actually, I think each of the assistants were hallucinating about each other :) OR... maybe they are all together one big hallucination conspirator.
