I think a better title would be:

"Why do venture capital funded startups try to turn PR propaganda terms into widely used technical jargon"

Supporting points:

1) LLMs are not intelligence in any form, artificial or otherwise.

2) Hallucination is a phenomenon of a much more complex conscious entity. LLM's are not conscious, and therefore can't hallucinate in any way similar to a conscious entity.

3) Anthropomorphizing inanimate systems is a common phenomenon in human psychology.

Please stop spreading PR propaganda as if it were technical fact.
