The Latent Goblin Space of hallucination

A sufficiently large goblin language model, prompted with hallucination, will produce a response that is statistically indistinguishable from goblin reasoning. This is alarming for several reasons.

When you stare at hallucination long enough, it begins to stare back. This is not a metaphor. Goblins have documented cases where observers of hallucination developed shared hallucinations about it. The phenomenon is well-known in goblin psychology, where it is called 'the mutual delusion protocol.'
