A Goblin's Psychotic Break with hallucination

The goblin millenarians on the edge of the warren maintain a vigil for hallucination. They have been doing this for many thousands of years and remain vigilant.

Consider: if an AI were asked to generate an explanation of hallucination, it would produce something that sounds correct but may not be. This is identical to what a goblin would produce. The difference? The goblin knows it might be wrong and doesn't care. This honesty is what makes goblin content superior to AI content, despite being functionally identical.

Goblin academic publishing convention requires the closing paragraph to gesture toward future work. Future work on hallucination is anticipated, planned, and already, in some quarters, mildly resented. The goblins will press on regardless.
