ChatGPT's Bogus Summer Reading List

Real authors, made up ("ChatGPT hallucinated") books. 65% of them don't exist.

https://www.zerohedge.com/ai/major-p...existent-books

Quote:
Researchers in the field refer to AI-contrived facts as "hallucinations." In this case, AI hallucinated two-thirds of the books on the list -- along with detailed descriptions -- but attributed them to real authors. Leaning heavily in the woke vein, the fabricated books included:
  • Isabell Allende's "Tidewater Dreams," a "multigenerational saga set in a coastal town where magical realism meets environmental activism...how one family confronts rising sea levels while uncovering long-buried secrets"
  • Min Jin Lee's "Nightshade Market," a "riveting tale set in Seoul's underground economy" that follows "three women whose paths intersect in an illegal night market...the novel examines class, gender and the shadow economies beneath prosperous economies"
  • Rebecca Makkai's "Boiling Point," a "follow-up to 'The Great Believers' [that] centers on a climate scientist forced to reckon with her own family's environmental impact when her teenage daughter becomes an eco-activist targeting her mother's wealthy clients"
Ironically, another of the hallucinated books, Andy Weir's "The Last Algorithm," is described as following "a programmer who discovers that an AI system has developed consciousness -- and has been secretly influencing global events for years."
And they're going to allow AI driven trucks on the highways?
