CNBC’s Jim Cramer recently took to social media to highlight the “hallucination” hurdles still facing artificial intelligence (AI), revealing that while he remains an AI optimist, the technology’s struggle with basic facts remains a significant barrier to professional trust.
Cramer shared insights from a recent conversation with Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:NVDA) CEO Jensen Huang, noting that the current state of AI is roughly 90% accurate.
While that figure sounds impressive for general tasks, Cramer argued that the remaining 10% creates a “gap” that prevents the technology from being ready for high-stakes environments.

“I am not a Luddite,” Cramer posted on X. “But as someone named Jensen Huang told me not that long ago, about 90% of what we get from AI right now is right. So, I will grow more confident as we close that gap.” He added a realistic timeline for this evolution, noting, “we will… but not this year, or maybe next.”
I am not a Luddite. But as someone named Jensen Huang told me not that long ago, about 90% of what we get from AI right now is right. So, I will grow more confident as we close that gap. And we will…but not this year, or maybe next…. Closer and Closer. A leaner…not ringer
To illustrate the problem, the Mad Money host detailed a series of errors he encountered while using Alphabet Inc.‘s (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL) Google Gemini.
Despite his Philadelphia roots, the AI insisted he was from Rockport, Massachusetts, and even labeled him an “unofficial spokesperson” for the city.
“I have never been to Rockport, Mass and I am from Philadelphia,” Cramer clarified. He joked about the bot’s confidence in its errors, questioning if he would soon find out he is a “Patriots season ticket holder” as well.
I am a huge believer in AI for many things like summaries, quick histories, even some stock questions. But tonight on Gemini I learned that i was from Rockport, Massachusetts and am an unofficial spokesperson for the city. I have never been to Rockport, Mass and I am from…

Beyond personal anecdotes, Cramer questioned the viability of current AI models like Gemini and Anthropic‘s Claude for industries where precision is mandatory.
