What Does This Mean?
[ SLANG ][ ENGLISH DAILY ]
Confident but fabricated output produced by an AI model.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"The chatbot cited a paper that doesn't exist, another confident hallucination."
LORE & ORIGIN
Standard AI-culture vocabulary for an AI model generating output that sounds plausible and confident but is factually fabricated, a foundational term the more specific hallucination-trap/hangover formats build on.
