Is it me, or did it still get at least three placements of components (RAM and PCIe slots, plus it's DisplayPort and not HDMI) in the motherboard image[0] completely wrong? Why would they use that as a promotional image?

Yep, the point we wanted to make here is that GPT-5.2's vision is better, not perfect. Cherrypicking a perfect output would actually mislead readers, and that wasn't our intent.

Not sure what you mean, Altman does that fake-humility thing all the time.

It's a marketing trick; show honesty in areas that don't have much business impact so the public will trust you when you stretch the truth in areas that do (AGI cough).

I'm confident that GP is good faithed though. Maybe I am falling for it. Who knows? It doesn't really matter, I just wanted to be nice to the guy. It takes some balls posting as OpenAi employee here, and I wish we heard from them more often, as I am pretty sure all of them lurk around.

It's the only reasonable choice you can make. As an employee with stock options you do not want to get trashed on Hackernews because this affects your income directly if you try to conduct a secondary share sale or plan to hold until IPO.

Once the IPO is done, and the lockup period is expired, then a lot of employees are planning to sell their shares. But until that, even if the product is behind competitors there is no way you can admit it without putting your money at risk.

I know HN commenters like to see themselves as contrarians, as do I sometimes, but man… this seems like a serious stretch to assume such malicious intent that an employee of the world’s top AI name would astroturf a random HN thread about a picture on a blog.

I’m fairly comfortable taking this OpenAI employee’s comment at face value.

Frankly, I don’t think a HN thread will make a difference to his financial situation, anyway…

Malicious ? No, and this is far from astroturfing, he even speaks as "we". It's just a logical move to defend your company when people claim your product is buggy.

There is no other logical move, this is what I am saying, contrary to people above say this requires a lot of courage. It's not about courage, it's just normal and logic (and yes Hackernews matters a lot, this place is a very strong source of signal for investors).

Not bad at all, just observing it.
