Do LLMs Make More Mistakes If They Do Not Believe the Input Data?

arXiv cs.CL ↗ · 2026-09-10 Cached

This paper analyzes how LLMs' faithfulness to provided context depends on perceived plausibility, using factual, counterfactual, and fictional RDF triples in multiple languages. It finds a weak context–memory conflict and emphasizes that the choice of LLM judge can overestimate its strength.

Decomposition-Induced Context-Memory Conflict: When Fact-Checking Pipelines Contradict Their Own Source Text

arXiv cs.CL ↗ · 2026-08-12 Cached

This paper identifies and characterizes Decomposition-Induced Context-Memory Conflict (DI-CC), a failure mode in decompose-then-verify pipelines where decomposition substitutes the model's parametric beliefs for the source text. The authors show it is mechanistically related to classical context-memory conflict, that SelfCheckGPT fails to detect it, and that context-aware decoding suppresses it but introduces severe parsing failures.
