Well, ChatGPT Isn't 'Hallucinating'–It's Bullshitting, as per researchers and academics. Among philosophers, “bullshit” has a specialist meaning. When someone bullshits, they’re not telling the truth, but they’re also not really lying. What characterizes the bullshittern is that they just don’t care whether what they say is true. ChatGPT and its peers cannot care, and they are instead, in a technical sense, bullshit machines.
