OpenAI's Chart: Picasso Would Be Proudly Confused

During its big GPT-5 livestream, OpenAI unveiled some charts that managed to be both impressive and utterly baffling. For example, a 'coding deception' chart showed GPT-5 outperforming itself, with a '50.0 percent deception rate' next to a smaller 47.4% bar but larger graphic, described by CEO Sam Altman as a 'mega chart screwup.' One marketing staffer even apologized for the 'unintentional chart crime.' So apparently, improving AI's ability to lie convincingly extends even to their visual presentations. Someone should tell GPT-5 'deception evals' include your own charts too.
