"Bullshitting" seems like a good term for accurate or inaccurate responses.
Let's extend "LLMs have no intention of being wrong" to "LLMs have no inherent sense of being correct" - sometimes their predictions happen to be correct, sometimes they don't. But they're all hallucinations generated from the same process.
- visarga 3y agoBullshitting always requires a hidden intention to manipulate.
- uoaei 3y agoMislead is probably a more accurate term. Bullshit exists outside of the correct/incorrect binary and serves only to build narrative.

As in "my buddies and I were bullshitting about movies the other day." ChatGPT definitely talks with an exaggerated manner confidence-wise.
