Best analogy so far. I am adopting this for the next wave of "wait until the next model" and "but humans hallucinate, too" comments. Yes, when we feed back our own output (language on the web) into ourselves, things become tricky to tease apart, and it would seem like intelligence to us. Then again, the mechanical turk appears intelligent, too. If we point out how it works, then the "magic" should vanish.
