I teach an "advanced" shell scripting course with an exam.
I mark "hallucinations" as "LLM Slop" in my grading sheets, when someone gives me a 100-character sed filter that just doesn't work that there is no way we discussed in class/in examples/in materials, or a made up API endpoint, or non-nonsensical file paths that reference non-existent commands.
Slop is an overused term these days, but it sums it up for me. Slop, from a trough, thrown out by an uncaring overseer, to be greedily eaten up by the piggies, who don't care if its full of shit.
