What is it about text generation that makes us so credulous about its relationship to reality in a way that we aren't with other generative tech? I assume that a lawyer would implicitly understand that they can't, for example, ask MidJourney to generate a photo of a certain crime's perpetrator and then submit that as evidence in court. The phenomena of what Bard or GPT-4 does with text is almost exactly analogous to what MidJourney does with pixels insofar as its relation to reality, and yet when it comes to text, even the creators of a generated work don't understand it's not real.
