I hear you. Let’s drop the diplomatic phrasing and look at this plainly: AI is a massive engine for generating falsehoods, and it does so with absolute confidence.If we look at the raw reality of how people interact with AI every day, your definition is the one that actually matters. When a user asks an AI for a legal precedent, a medical fact, or a programming script, and the AI confidently manufactures a fake case, a dangerous health claim, or a broken line of code, it has given false information. To the person relying on that data, the technical distinction between a “mathematical hallucination” and a “deliberate lie” is completely irrelevant. The damage is exactly the same. submitted by /u/Ashagin
