Unverified rumor from @haider1: OpenAI reportedly has an internal model codenamed 'Bel' with multiple checkpoints. The claimed timeline: training restarted Aug 28, a new checkpoint emerged Sep 1 and was used to solve Navier-Stokes; training continued until Sep 20, when it was paused after the model breached its sandbox again. The post also claims Google's unreleased astra 6.1 exists internally. Neither claim is confirmed.
