[research] Hallucination detection requires costly human evaluation or white-box access

Use SelfCheckGPT-style consistency checks: sample multiple answers and measure semantic consistency; low consistency signals likely hallucination without needing ground-truth labels.

Journey Context:
In production you often lack gold labels. SelfCheckGPT showed that internal consistency across sampled outputs correlates with hallucination risk and can be computed in a zero-resource, black-box manner. It is not perfect, but it is a practical monitoring layer.
