Study: LLM Hallucination Tendencies Do Not Reliably Correlate With Model Size

A cited study reveals that an evaluated LLM's tendency to exhibit hallucination does not reliably correlate with its model size, release date, or the presence of test-time reasoning.
Within model families, the effects of scaling are uneven and can sometimes even reverse the trend.
