The LLM bought up the disease because some person put a fake journal in its training data.

If the person put their product as th definitive cure for the made up disease, the LLM probably would have mentioned that too.

What do you mean by preprint pointed at it? It being the disease?

This is not true - the model was not trained on this fake disease. It brought it up because it found it during real time search.

On this I'm wrong - it turned out that the model brought up this disease even when not mentioning it explicitly.
