A rumor claimed GPT-6.2 Astra was being stealth-tested in Codex, evidenced by an Xbox controller SVG. Angaisb debunks it: the SVG was made by the regular GPT-6 Astra using a 3D model as reference, and the stealth-test story was fabricated — 'stop making up stealth tests and let them ship.' The post also lists the few leak accounts considered reliable, including @btibor91, @testingcatalog and @M1Astra.
