Not just common. If you look at kids, hallucinations come first in their development.

Later, they learn to filter what is real and what is not real. And as adults, we have weird thoughts that we suppress so quickly that we hardly remember them.

And for those with less developed filters, they have more difficulty to distinguish fact from fiction.

Generative AI is good at generating. What needs to be improved is the filtering aspect of AI.

Hell, just look at various public personalities - especially those with extreme views. Most of what some of them say they have "hallucinated". Far more so than what GPT chat is doing.
