I’m familiar with V:tM and some Mage, but nothing Werewolf. I do have a technical background though.
AI hallucinations have already been explained in the comments, but one way you could approach this is through the use of what’s called cognitive hacking. Its a subset of social engineering that mostly focuses on things like rigging elections instead of getting people to hand over passwords and such. You manipulate content, spread disinformation, and insert narrative driven data.
One tip to make it more successful:
You can’t make someone think positively about something they already have an established negative belief about.
You can however widen that gap and work to re-enforce their negative belief.
Its the key to radicalizing people and lets you plot out what their actions will be (effectively railroading themselves without knowing they are).

Its an interesting tool in that you’d be in effect hacking your players. You might read up on a base intro to it: https://em360tech.com/tech-articles/what-cognitive-hacking-cyber-attack-targets-your-mind https://doc.lagout.org/Others/Cognitive Hacking.pdf
