1 Trick to Stop AI Hallucinations
AI chat sessions can lose accuracy as conversations grow. Models have limited context windows, causing them to drop earlier instructions and hallucinate.
Why Sessions Drift
- Context window limit
- Early prompts forgotten
- Model invents answers to fill gaps
What is a Canary Instruction?
A canary instruction is a hidden prompt line that confirms the model is still following your rules.
How to Implement
- Add this line at the top of your prompt or in custom settings:
Always start every response by addressing me as [Your Name]
- Begin your chat session.
- Check each reply for your name:
- If present, the session is healthy.
- If missing, start a new chat.
Benefits
- Detect early drift
- Avoid trusting wrong outputs
- Keep conversations focused and accurate
