The mysterious AI chatbot, “gpt2-chatbot,” returned to the major language model benchmarking site LMSYS Org on Monday night after nearly a week. It suddenly disappeared. But now, there are two: “im-a-gpt2-chatbot” and “im-also-a-gpt2-chatbot.” These models exhibited the same GPT-4 level capabilities, some say even better than the original.
These models are even faster than the first GPT2-chatbot. Most of the AI models on LMSYS you can select from a drop-down menu. However, the only way to access “im-a-gpt2-chatbot” and “im-also-a-gpt2-chatbot” is to navigate. LMSYS Chatbot Arena (Battle). There you can enter a prompt and hope that one of the chatbots will randomly pop up. Despite the strange nature of these AI chatbots, they have once again attracted massive attention from the AI community.
Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI Tweeted “im-a-gpt2-chatbot” on Sunday, a day before these chatbots went online, which many see as confirmation that OpenAI is A/B testing the new models. LMSYS Org typically only works with major AI model providers, many of which offer anonymous testing services. Gizmodo couldn’t confirm this, but that hasn’t stopped the online community from speculating about what OpenAI is building.
OpenAI and LMSYS Org did not immediately respond to Gizmodo’s request for comment.
On Reddit and X, users are trying to decipher information from Altman’s tweets, OpenAI’s past release trends, and gpt2-chatbot to figure out what’s coming next. gave The most popular theory Among these channels is that gpt2-chatbot is an older AI model from OpenAI, powered by a modern architecture. That said, this is all speculation, and it’s not yet clear if these AI models are even from OpenAI.
Online communities have also been affected by im-a-gpt2-chatbot and im-also-a-gpt2-chatbot. Just like the original gpt2-chatbot, some say these AI models outperform current versions of ChatGPT. One user claims he was able to code the mobile game by simply asking “Flappy Bird game code in Python.”
OpenAI reportedly planned an event Thursday at the company’s headquarters to share product demonstrations and updates. the information. However, the report states that the company is now considering postponing the event. The report did not say what the incident was about.
Speaking at Harvard University last week, Altman told a crowd that gpt2-chatbot is not GPT-4.5, according to a Report from Axios. However, Altman did not specify whether it is an OpenAI product or not.
Gizmodo was able to use “im-a-good-gpt2-chatbot” on the LMSYS battlefield. In our limited testing, we found the chatbot exhibited similar capabilities to GPT-4, and other AI models in this class. It answered some questions more accurately than Meta’s Llama-3b-70b-instruction.
Still, little is known about where these gpt2-chatbots come from. It seems a power player is behind them, and Altman seems intent on fanning the flames, as online communities speculate it to be OpenAI. Regardless, new AI models are on the horizon, even if we don’t know what their origins are.
