knowledge cutoff

The last date an AI learned about. It may not know anything that happened after that.

The fuller meaning

The date after which a language model's training data ends. Questions about later events invite confident but invented answers, so recent news, prices and dates must come from primary sources; events after the cutoff are a warning sign of hallucination.
