Hallucination is a Consequence of Space-Optimality: A Rate-Distortion Theorem for Membership Testing
Hallucinations are the space-optimal behavior for limited-capacity models performing membership testing on sparse facts, as shown by a rate-distortion theorem that equates optimal memory use to minimum KL divergence between fact and non-fact score distributions.
