@Muskwalker Hmm... Regretting not putting out more robust resolution criteria. I guess i'll wait a while.
@MingCat have we tried asking them? (alternately if lmarena is still serving lobster pseudonymously, that would probably be good evidence against being a gpt-5)
@Muskwalker like, @ing roon or Aidan or someone? I'm not sure they'd want to reveal anything openai hasn't said publicly. I haven't seen any mention of lobster in a while, I can find a trace of it on lmarena myself, so I don't think it's still being served.
@MingCat I was thinking more @ing the lmarena_ai account itself to ask if the info is still being kept private or not, but i guess anyone who would know. obvs if it is still secret then that won't help with resolution, but if it isn't secret anymore and just wasn't announced, then it could.
also yes it looks like a reddit post from end of July does confirm that lobster was removed (...and at the same time as summit and the others, but of course that only suggests openainess rather than gpt-5ness)
