> How is an AI "hallucination" different from human-generated works that are just plain wrong, or otherwise misleading?

yikes, mate, you've really misunderstood what's happening.

when a human fucks up, a human has fucked up. you can appeal to them, or to their boss, or to their CEO.

the way these crappy "AI" systems are being deployed, there is no one to appeal to and no process for unfucking things.

yes, this is not exactly caused by AI, it's caused by sociopaths operating businesses and governments, but the extent to which this enabled them and their terrible disdain for the world is horrifying.

this is already happening, of course - Cathy O'Neil wrote "Weapons Of Math Destruction" in 2016, about how unreviewable software systems were screwing people, from denying poor people loans to harsher sentencing for minority groups, but Sam Altman and the new generation of AI grifters now want this to apply to everything.
