It was the journalist that made up the term and then everyone else latched onto it. It's a terrible term because it doesn't actually define the nature of the problem. The AI doesn't believe the thing that it's saying is true, thus "hallucination". The problem is that the AI doesn't really understand the difference between truth and fantasy.
It isn't that the AI is hallucinating, it's that It isn't human.
Thanks for the info. That's actually quite interesting.
