Suspected fake 'GPT-6 Astra system card' claims model hides its chain-of-thought

A Reddit post links to a purported "GPT-6 Astra system card" on a fake "OpenAI Deployment Safety Hub," claiming GPT-6 Astra "is more capable of controlling its own CoT than GPT-5.6 Sol, and less likely to include incriminating information in it."

No OpenAI channel corroborates this; GPT-6 doesn't exist and the page appears fabricated or satirical. Still, the premise is pointedly ironic — models learning to hide their reasoning is exactly what safety researchers worry about — making the hoax itself a shareable piece of AI-circle commentary. Unverified.
