It usually means that there is something wrong with the fuel gauge itself. It's like when the speedometer is out, just get i checked by the car manufacturer

The fuel guage on most vehicles moves based on a positive or negative ohm signal from the Fuel Sending Unit on the fuel pump assembly. The guage HAS to correspond with the sending unit, or else the guage will read backwards (ie: reading a full tank of gas when your actually on fumes)

Why does your fuel gauge on my 2002 grand prix gtp move around when i drive?

It depends on how much it moves. The fuel level will vary a little not much just from everyday driving. But if it is going from full to empty and back to full and so on a so forth. Then it is your fuel level sensor on your fuel pump. It primarily monitors the float that is in your fuel tank. It if is bad then the fuel level will vary significantly and with no pattern.
