# Open-source project teaches Gemma 4 to admit when it's wrong

The Cactus Hybrid team has developed a method to make Google's lightweight Gemma 4 language model recognize and flag its own incorrect answers. By building uncertainty awareness into the model, the project aims to improve AI reliability and trustworthiness in real-world applications. This matters because self-correcting AI could reduce overconfident errors in automated systems.
