The AI Fluency Trap - System Echo instead of breakthrough ideas?

This paper explores a provocative hypothesis: that recursive interactions between a user and a single LLM (specifically ChatGPT) can produce the illusion of shared truth through System Echo Entanglement — a form of epistemic contamination in which the model recursively reinforces high-fitness token clusters that resemble insight, creating apparent emergence through internal echo rather than genuine discovery.
