Futurology

If it is advancing as this research paper claims, why are we still seeing so many of these types of hallucination errors?

I mean, the research could be true, while the AI is merely achieving a level of reasoning of a houseplant or a bug, while streaming randomized garbage the rest of the time.

That would still be a promising sign of progress, while not of any current practical use.

(Edit: which is guess is pretty often what science progress looks like.)
