> AI is known to lie.

Point of order: lying requires knowing true from false. Artificial Incompetence doesn't: it's a glorified guess-the-next-word machine which can't be sent to its room without supper. When it produces something (let's say) counter-factual, that's called "hallucination" in the trade; real humans can do that as well in all innocence, eg False Memory Syndrome.

.... Exception: When playing certain role-playing games, LLMs can be trained to tell lies when the rules permit it. But that's an outlier.
