I think it's because LLM output tends to be snippets of truth, connected in such a way as to be subtly false. It leaves you disoriented because it is in the uncanny valley of truth: you know it's not right, but can't put your finger on why it is not right. It's made worse buy its asymmetric nature: it takes seconds to generate pages of words and hours to figure out what is wrong with them, for little to no gain to the reader.
"The uncanny valley of truth". That's a brilliant way of putting it. Thank you.

I think you've just formalized the best argument for the Real Butlerian Jihad we're ever going to get.
