'Fooling', essentially to deceive or trick, is defined as causing someone to believe an untruth - at least in British English it does. LLMs don't hold beliefs (neither do mechanistic processes), and they aren't a someone. You can widen out the definition words but that generally makes language weaker - interestingly, semantic drift is a big issue for LLM's.
