Perhaps true. But if you are warning against the dangers of so-called "AI" - "hallucinate" is also suggestive of "dangerous", "insane", and some other strong negatives.
“It’s just completely obvious that within five years deep learning is going to do better than radiologists.… It might be 10 years, but we’ve got plenty of radiologists already.” - Geoffrey Hinton 2016 [1]
He missed the 5 year deadline by a lot and it currently looks extremely unlikely his 10 year deadline is any good either.
I continue to respect Hinton, he uses and chooses his words carefully I think.
