AI does not "hallucinate," it provides statistically plausible results that sometimes are completely incorrect. I think it is important to recognize that "hallucination" is an anthropomorphizing metaphor. LLMs do not think, although that is what the AI companies want us to think.

I just got back from a workshop on "Multispecies Intellectual History" at the University of Oxford. Philosophy, history, physics, botany, anthropology, art, and other fields were represented in the discussions, and a publication on this is to be expected. Read more here: cas.au.dk/en/umih #envhum

The "AI" Ghibli images are especially outrageous considering AI's environmental damage vs. Ghibli's conservationist politics. "Princess Mononoke" is about a militant campaign to save the forest. In "Spirited Away" Chihiro frees a river god from trash and pollution.

Finally figured out how easy it is to turn off the annoying "AI Assistant" when reading PDFs in Adobe Acrobat in the browser: the three dots → preferences → uncheck "Enable generate AI feature in Acrobat". AI can be useful, but unwanted assistance is not... Analyzing on my own is how I learn.
