Language can be used as one of the most dangerous tools we have because it shapes the way we think (and thus our future) mostly on a subconscious level. The more subtly a word misleads, the more difference it can make in practice.

I've never been opposed to the word "hallucinating" for describing how AI makes mistakes ... until now. -

I'm opposed to your use of 'AI'. An LLM is not an intelligence, even though that is what people call it.
Every word the industry likes for its own products probably helps to mislead the public.
Every form of anthropomorphisation of LLMs should be banned. -
Being able to pay Google to show up above your competitor when someone searches specifically for your competitor is honestly one of the scummiest little growth-hacker products big tech ever cooked up.@Daojoan
Big Tech wouldn't be Big Tech if commercial advertising didn't exist. It shouldn't, because it extracts value from society. (The only advertising allowed should be (unpaid) word of mouth and window dressing.)
