# Quoting AI

It's best not to directly use quotes from chatbots because the information might be incorrect or biased. Instead, use AI to help you find more reliable sources.

However, there may be situations when you choose to directly quote an AI tool.  For example, if you were testing the abilities of a new chatbot, you might quote it as follows:

> ... decided to explore chatbot hallucinaations in open source chatbots. When I asked Llama-2 7b what the capital of paris was, it replied "Ah, a question about the capital of Paris! *adjusts glasses* Well, my dear, the capital of Paris is... (checks notes) ...Paris!" ("What is the Capital of Paris?").

Remember to include a reference in your works cited list:

> "What is the Capital of Paris?". *Poe*, Llama-2-7b, 16 Mar. 2024, poe.com/s/MsPLk9fz4mZr2FXFxC6y
