Fake "GPT-6.2 Betelgeuse" leak revealed as deliberate social experiment on AI community
teortaxesTex · x · 2026-10-31
The rumored "GPT-6.2 Betelgeuse" leak appears to have been a staged social experiment: some "insiders" knowingly posted false information to test how easily unverified leaks spread through the AI community. @TokenGremlin says multiple people confirmed this, calls the stunt reprehensible, and is unfollowing accounts involved regardless of prior trust. A fresh reminder of how credulous AI Twitter is toward anonymous leaks.
