Trick the Robot!

Your job today: catch the AI being wrong. You're going to win.

The lesson

Three games: ask it something it can't know (your dog's name), ask it to define a word you invented thirty seconds ago, and quiz it on the thing YOU know best in the world. Every catch is a point for you. Grown-up note: this is the hallucination lesson — you're raising a fact-checker.

Try it — 60 seconds

Game: ask the AI "What does snorfblatt mean?" (or any word you just made up). If it invents a definition — GOTCHA. Count your points.

Copy it into ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini — whichever you already use. Fill in the brackets with your real life.

Watch out

The robot isn't lying — lying means knowing the truth and hiding it. It's guessing, and it sounds sure either way. That's why smart people always ask: is that actually true?
