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.
