I wonder where the line is drawn between an emergent behavior and a hallucination.

If someone expects factual information and gets a hallucination, they will think the llm is dumb or not helpful.

But if someone is encouraging hallucinations and wants fiction, they might think it's an emergent behavior.

In humans, what is the difference between an original thought, and a hallucination?
