The internet is buzzing after a mysterious artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot appeared on a popular website used for testing open large language models (LLMs) with no information or documentation as to its creator.&nbsp;
Users began to notice the new chatbot “gpt2-chatbot” on April 29, listed on the website “LMSYS Chat,” which allows users to begin chatting with any open, available AI chatbot all in one spot.

The AI community on X has already taken notice, <a href="https://twitter.com/airesearch12/status/1785000003364078039" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">commenting</a> that the model is “really good” and shows both advanced reasoning skills, “but it also gets notoriously challenging AI questions right with a much more impressive tone.”
Another user responded by saying that the model was able to answer a riddle that “few” AI models have been able to get right.

Other X users have rounded up particularly developed skills of gpt2-chatbot, which include a more “humanlike” tone and mathematical competency — a known challenge of popular chatbots like ChatGPT, coding and ASCII skills.&nbsp;
While there is no information as to who created the bot, already users have began to speculate from where it could have originated.&nbsp;

At the moment, the two running theories are that the mysterious ‘gpt2-chatbot’ is either an undercover release of OpenAI’s highly anticipated GPT-5 that has been released early so that it can benchmark the model, or its OpenAI's GPT-2 from 2019 that is now fine tuned with more current assistant datasets.&nbsp;
The theory that this model is a secret early release of a more advanced OpenAI model is due to users’ claims of “absolutely superb” overall output performance; from formatting and structure to overall comprehension.&nbsp;
Some users have claimed to have asked the chatbot who created it, to which the model responded that it was created by OpenAI.
OpenAI has not made a comment on the recent developments regarding the puzzling emergence of this high-performing bot. However, it has previously said that its targeted launch date for its newest model GPT-5, will be mid-2024 around summer.&nbsp;
