Confabulation

This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.

State

Where a language model's residue is thin, prediction does not stop — it continues, confident, with the exact grammar and cadence of knowledge.

Show

Obscure people, precise numbers, citations — regions where text-shaped regularity runs out and the continuation machinery keeps going.

Watch for

The machine is not lying — lying requires knowing better — and not malfunctioning: prediction is doing its one thing where that thing goes wrong.
