It does not hallucinate, it guesses based on the model to make you think the text could be written by a human. Personal experience when I ask into summarize a text. It has errors in it, and sometimes it adds stuff to it. Same if you for instance ask it to make an alphabetic a list of X numbers of items. It may add random items.
I've had it make up things if I ask it for a list of say 5 things but there's only 4 things worth listing. I haven't seen it stray from summarizing something I've fed it though. If its giving text, its been pretty accurate. Only gets funky when you ask it things where information isn't available. Then it goes with what you probably want
