摘要
Large language models (LLMs) can introduce unexpected ideas through hallucinations, yet little is known about when creative practitioners find these errors inspiring or how these judgments shape interactions. We conducted a retrospective qualitative study with 20 experienced practitioners in research, design, and social media content creation, thematically analyzing 41 hallucination cases and 20 semi-structured interviews. Our framework links inspiration judgments of hallucinations based on goal relevance, task stage, content adaptability, and type-specific factors to behaviors across not-inspired, inspired-by, and inspired-to states. We characterize downstream interaction consequences, showing how hallucination-inspired experiences vary across creative stages and reshape role-differentiated trust, and propose these consequences as a dimension of hallucination evaluation. Finally, we derive design recommendations for stage-sensitive control of divergence and adherence, user-defined constraint priorities, differentiated hallucination labels, and salvage support for preserving useful ideas while correcting errors. These contributions deepen HCI understanding of hallucinations and responsible LLM design in creative work.
