#Confabulation

A magazine Peter Thiel funded, except he didn't, because it never existed, because a language model invented it and handed it to us with a straight face. We used the machine to fact-check the machine, counted forty fabrications, learned they cluster exactly where nobody can check — and then caught our own cleanup committing the identical error: deleting a real company as a fake because we couldn't find it. Absence of evidence, laundered both directions.
