hallucination: The Goblin Cover-Up

If the internet is a goblin's cave—and it is—then hallucination is one of the more interesting skeletons someone has chained to the wall.

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.

The vocaloid Question, Restated

After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on vocaloid: 'It is what it is, except when it isn't, which is most of the time.' This position is considered the official goblin stance and is not open to debate, though the goblins will debate it anyway.

The Goblin Verdict on hallucination

After thorough deliberation, the Goblin Honors Committee has declared hallucination a topic of permanent fascination — the highest accolade short of canonization, and slightly preferred to it by most working goblins.
