"In order to hallucinate, one must have some awareness or regard for the truth; LLMs, by contrast, work with probabilities, not binary correct/incorrect judgments. Based on a huge map of words created by processing huge amounts of text, LLMs decide which words would most likely follow from the words used in a prompt. They’re inherently more concerned with sounding truthy than delivering a factually correct response, the researchers conclude."
