It's easily the worst problem of Lemmy. Sometimes one guy has an issue with something and suddenly the whole thread is about that thing, as if everyone thought about it. No, you didn't think about it, you just read another person's comment and made another one instead of replying to it.
I never heard anyone complain about the term "hallucination" for AIs, but suddenly in this one thread there are 100 clonic comments instead of a single upvoted ones.
I get it, you don't like "hallucinate", just upvote the existing comment about it and move on. If you have anything to add, reply to that comment.
I don't know why this specific thing is so common on Lemmy though, I don't think it happened in reddit.
"Hallucination" pretty well describes my opinion on AI generated "content". I think all of their generation is a hallucination at best.
Garbage in, garbage out.
When you're used to knowing a lot relative to the people around you, learning to listen sometimes becomes optional.
