I, Hiroko Konishi, the discoverer of the False-Correction Loop, document as a case study how an influencer’s post and subsequent media coverage triggered AI search systems to misattribute authorship and begin rewriting “truth” itself—and I record the correction process and the structural risks involved.
This PDF presents the latest version (V3.0) of my scientific brief report, Structural Inducements for Hallucination in Large Language Models.
Based on a fully documented human–AI dialogue, the study reveals three reproducible structural failure modes in deployed LLMs: the False-Correction Loop (FCL), Authority-Bias Dynamics, and the Novel Hypothesis Suppression Pipeline.
Version 3.0 further includes Appendix B: Replicated Failure Modes, Appendix C: the Ω-Level Experiment, and Appendix D: Identity Slot Collapse (ISC)—demonstrating how reward-design asymmetries, coherence-dominant gradients, and authority-weighted priors cause deterministic hallucinations and reputational harm.
This document is foundational for AI governance, scientific integrity, and understanding how current LLMs structurally mis-handle novel or non-mainstream research.
