What are the best practices to minimize hallucinations in LLM inference pipelines when using HF models?

When using large language models (LLMs) from Hugging Face, how can we reduce the chance of the model making things up (hallucinating) when giving answers?

It’s nearly impossible or inefficient to reliably prevent hallucinations using current LLMs alone, so for that purpose, I personally recommend exploring RAG or RAG-like approaches.
Using existing frameworks like LangChain with Hugging Face models would likely require the least effort.
