The lesson: just because a model is branded for uncertainty doesn’t mean it delivers. Stop the monkey data science—science is not crowd-following.

Can we all please stop allowing the spinning of AI terms to make it seem like AI has intelligence?

Let me paint a scenario.

You come to me for security advice. You've got a server you have on the Internet and you want to secure it. I tell you the secret is to surround the server with these crystals that will stop hackers from breaking into it.

Now what do you say about what I told you knowing it's bullshit? Do you say "Oh that's just some hallucination from John" or do you say "John is wrong"?

When AI says to use glue to keep your pizza cheese from sliding off it isn't f*cking hallucinating! Its mathematical model it's built on is wrong. And you can't say it's lying because again...there is no damn intelligence in AI and the large LLMs that we are using now will NEVER have intelligence.

So please, for the love of god, stop saying hallucinating and just say this AI model was wrong when it told me X or Y.

<rant over>
