History as Vibe
LLMs commonly produce what we call “history as vibe”—coherent-sounding (or looking) responses that simulate authority but lack epistemic grounding, aesthetic intentionality, and ethical reflexivity. In other words, the “feeling” may strike the reader as right, but, ultimately, the AI-generated response reifies stereotypes, reinforcing biases or even historical inaccuracies because its adherence to accuracy is coincidental, not foundational.
