Tarski's Paradox Demonstrates Limitations of Truth Probes in Large Language Models
The article demonstrates that truth probes in large language models cannot reliably capture truth due to self-referential paradoxes akin to Tarski's and Gödel's results. Experimental validation with a Qwen3.5-4B model shows paradoxical sentences produce inconsistent scores, highlighting fundamental limitations in embedding-based truth detection.
