AIF-C01 Practice Question 83: Generative AI Inaccurate Output

AWS Certified AI Practitioner (AIF-C01) · Test 9 · question 3 of 10

Fundamentals of GenAIeasy

A law firm plans to let a generative AI application draft first versions of client memos. The partners ask which limitation of generative AI they should plan around before rollout. Which answer is correct?

Show answer and explanation

Answer:

A. Responses can sound confident yet be inaccurate or misleading, so a review step is needed.

AWS states that *"generative AI systems can sometimes produce inaccurate or misleading information"* and that they *"can reflect biases or inaccuracies inherent in"* their training data. For a legal use case, a qualified person should review each draft before it reaches a client (option A). Grounding the model with retrieval and applying guardrails can reduce, but not eliminate, the risk.

- B is wrong because foundation models are pretrained on broad data and handle many tasks from prompts alone, without a labeled dataset per task. - C is wrong because the opposite is true: quality can drift as data and user needs change, so output should be monitored after launch. - D is wrong because generative models create new text by learning patterns. They are not limited to reproducing training text verbatim.
