For anyone who still doesn't understand why more and more folks are pointing out that LLMs "hallucinate" 100% of the time, let me put it to you this way: what is the LLM doing differently when it generates tokens that are "wrong" compared to when the tokens are "right"? If there is a difference, where does that exist? In the mechanism of the LLM, or in your mind?

Bonus question 1: Why do humans produce speech? Is it a representation of text? Why then do humans produce text? Is there an intent to communicate, or merely to construct a "correct" symbolic representation?

Bonus question 2: It's been said that every possible phrase is encoded in the constant pi. Do we think pi has intelligence? Intent?
