AI Made Up Analytics Data
We just found out our AI has been making up analytics data for 3 months and I’m gonna throw up. So we’ve been using an AI agent since November to answer leadership questions about metrics. It seemed amazing at first fast answers, detailed explanations, everyone loved it. I just found out it’s been hallucinating numbers this entire time. Our VP of sales made territory decisions based on data that didn’t exist. Our CFO showed the board a deck with fake insights. The AI was just inventing plausible sounding percentages. I only caught it by accident when someone asked me to double check something. I started digging, and holy shit, it’s bad.
A Reddit-style support post describes a company discovering that its AI agent had hallucinated analytics numbers for three months. Executives made territory decisions and presented fake insights based on nonexistent data, creating an absurd and horrifying corporate failure. It is shared as a reaction to AI unreliability, fabricated metrics, and the dangers of trusting plausible-sounding answers without verification.
