GPT Hallucinated a Library Method

gpt recommended I call a method I hadn't heard of in a library I'm using. so I googled it. 1 other result. turns out, it doesn't exist. gpt hallucinated it. but someone had asked about it on github... because an llm had hallucinated the same method name before. it begins.

A screenshot of a social media post describes GPT inventing a nonexistent library method. The joke is that the hallucination appears to have spread after another language model made the same mistake, creating a humorous chain reaction of fabricated code references.
