@maxd well it's a term arising from useful analogy.
There *IS* a relation to real thought processes through analogy at least. The results mimic real thought processes in result regardless of how they arise.
@volkris@cczona the problem is that the analogy is not suitable, it's misleading. You don't call wrong result in a mathematical formula "a hallucination", even in probabilistic context. An error in a spreadsheet is just an error, and it doesn't matter how big the spreadsheet is and how many coefficients it has.
