If you're not seeing the hallucinations, I'd assert you're either not using it enough, or (more likely) you don't have enough knowledge in the subject matter to notice when it's hallucinating.

What a condescending post. You either haven't used any recent models if you make that statement. Anyone who used GPT3.5 and any other newer model know that hallucinations have gone down tremendously.
Of course it's not perfect, here and there are inaccuracies or plain hallucinations, but it's impossible to state that it's still the same garbage it was 3 years ago.
I'm not interested in getting into some argument about who has "more knowledge in the subject matter". I'm genuinely curious: do you think Opus 4.6 hallucinates just as much as GPT-3.5?
Yes. I see it hallucinate method names for 3rd party libraries constantly.
It’s useful, but when users here say they’re vibe coding 98% of their work, I have to think they’re not working on anything complex.
Hmm no way. Ive used to see hallucinations like 50% of the time prompting gpt3.5 for simple functions.
I don't remember the last time ive seen a made up library/methods these days and Im definitely using way more for more complex stuff. The tool calling changed the game.
Even for work I do almost 100% of my coding telling claude what to do. I mean I break down the tasks and tell it more or less exactly what I want but I find "rename this thing across these two repos" easier than doing it myself
I ran into the non existent methods and functions far more a year ago than I do today. I hadn’t even considered it as I don’t write a lot of code, Most of my job is talking with people to understand the problems and to drive strategy.
LMFAO does it hallucinate to the same degree as GPT 3?
Which is what was questioned.
