"Slop" and "hallucinate" have meanings outside of AI too, but it's easier to repurpose existing words than come up with a whole new lexicon for AI failure modes.

Groan, redefining "plagiarism" to add "inventing quotes" is a stupidity too far for me.

Making up quotes and attributing them to people has happened before AI, journalists proper and pretend have done it too.
