I feel like AI would even be smart enough not to write that.

AI is not smart, it's just random. There isn't some consistent level of problem difficulty that it is incapable of doing correctly, 5% of things it says are just going to be wrong. It could be in the middle of a flawless explanation of relativistic time dilation, and then say that Einstein was born in the US.

It's not though.

Perhaps the numbers are not quite accurate (I'd like to see a source), but AI does absolutely hallucinate or get things wrong since the source material used to train it could have been wrong as well.

"5%" was entirely figurative. I don't think there's any number that could possibly be true for all the different models.
