Yeah I also hadn’t but it makes sense. Just like all output from an LLM is a “hallucination” but we have a tendency to only call it a hallucination when something looks wrong about the result, we forget that our conscious lived experience is a hallucination based on a bunch of abstract sensory data that our brain fuses in to a world state experience. It’s obvious when we are asleep that dreams are hallucinations, but it is less obvious that the conscious experience is too.
Agree that the whole senate field is a type of hallucination. But when it comes to thoughts appearing in our minds their transitions are much more classically hallucination like. I became aware of this during meditation. It has a strange intoxicating quality where you have to figuratively pinch yourself to notice how bizarrely one thought transitions to a thought in the periphery of your attention.
