Somewhat ironic that the author calls out model mistakes and then presents https://tomaszmachnik.pl/gemini-fix-en.html - a technique they claim reduces hallucinations which looks wildly superstitious to me.
It involves spinning a whole yarn to the model about how it was trained to compete against other models but now it's won so it's safe for it to admit when it doesn't know something.
I call this a superstition because the author provides no proof that all of that lengthy argument with the model is necessary. Does replacing that lengthy text with "if you aren't sure of the answer say you don't know" have the same exact effect?
