It’s far more than an innocent hallucination. It manufactured news propaganda. Statements like “has been accused”, “authorities are investigating”, “houses being damaged” would be sourced if it were by journalistic standards.

X ai weights and biases have gone Elon-mode.

I'm not sure what you mean - this link is about a different AI built by a different company. I'd also encourage you to not to give much weight to a social media screenshot attributed only to "somebody".

The point is that the space of unhinged LLMs gets worse than this one, somehow. And this one was reproduced by others, per the comments.

Most of everything we know is based on things we've heard second or third hand. We tend not to realize this consciously, or that we only choose to be skeptical at certain times based on our values.
