just to be clear, I see it like this (for now):

if a GPT does it and turns out to be false, then it's an hallucination and it's bad (goto more training)

if a human does it, then truth becomes "self-expression" (art) so we call it creativity and it's good

Depends. Once I misremembered the usage of the command "ln", and I wiped ~10 machines inadvertently.

Nobody called it self-expression / art, and none of the results of my little "experiment" were good.

Do it a couple of times, and you'll be updating your CV.


No, if a human does it by accident, as is clearly the case here, we call it "hallucination", "misremembering", "mandela effect" or "dementia"


the point of contention comes out of how you are saying "...by accident" but I'm sidelining the intention
