QuestionQ56

Output Evaluation and Validation

You are assessing a Claude output that seems to include hallucinated content. Which response step should be taken first when a hallucination is suspected?

Explanation

A hallucination is an assertion that lacks factual support or conflicts with reliable evidence. Identifying the exact unsupported claim establishes what must be verified, corrected, withdrawn, or escalated; regeneration, risk documentation, and user notification are subsequent actions. Anthropic recommends verifying claims with supporting quotations and sources, and withdrawing a claim when no supporting citation can be found.
