> I agree that C is an improvement over H, for different reasons from the author. Here's why: From a public comms standpoint, the big problem with saying "hallucinate" is that it leads to misconceptions, because people think they know what "hallucinate" means, and may anthropomorphize their pop psych grasp of H onto the LLM. No. Firstly its just using a far more obscure term, moreover its common translation is "honest lies" which is an oxymoron. Hallucinate is an accessible term that simply describes the outcome of what the user sees. if you want a better term diving deep into obscure psych language is not the right way, it just confers an air of fanciness to what is either a feature, or a massive drawback of LLMs (depending on context) Better words might be: flights of fancy, bullshit, imagined, illusion, rubbish, noise.
