I don't buy the bullshit thing if you use a dictionary version of bullshit:

>to talk nonsense to especially with the intention of deceiving or misleading https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/bullshit

like say Musk saying there'd be a million robotaxis on the road by next year in 2020. Gemini 2.5 getting the riddle wrong seems an honest mistake - a confused guess rather than an intention to deceive.

Slightly related, Hinton was amusing accusing Gary Marcus of confabulating rather than the LLMs https://youtu.be/d7ltNiRrDHQ
