Wired for Overconfidence: A Mechanistic Perspective on Inflated Verbalized Confidence in LLMs
Apr 4, 2026arXiv Computation and Language
Event Summary
arXiv:2604.01457v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models are often not just wrong, but \emph{confidently wrong}: when they produce factually incorrect answers, they tend to verbalize overly high confidence rather than signal uncertainty. Such verbalized overconfidence can mislead users
