gpt2-chatbot confirmed as OpenAI (via) The mysterious gpt2-chatbot
model that showed up in the LMSYS arena a few days ago was suspected to be a testing preview of a new OpenAI model. This has now been confirmed, thanks to a 429 rate limit error message that exposes details from the underlying OpenAI API platform.
The model has been renamed to im-also-a-good-gpt-chatbot
and is now only randomly available in "Arena (battle)" mode, not via "Direct Chat".
