Where did the "GPT-5o-mini" in this headline come from?
That's not a real model name: there's GPT-5-mini and GPT-4o-mini but no GPT-5o-mini.
UPDATE: Here's where the GPT-5o-mini came from: https://www.thalamusgme.com/blogs/methodology-for-creation-and-processing-of-a-novel-transcript-normalization-tool-in-cortex-application-screening-and-review-platform https://www.thalamusgme.com/blogs/methodology-for-creation-a... - via this comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45581030 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45581030

I caught it hallucinating some of the content for a pretty straight-forward newspaper scan a few weeks ago: https://simonwillison.net/2025/Aug/29/the-perils-of-vibe-coding/ https://simonwillison.net/2025/Aug/29/the-perils-of-vibe-cod...
Gemini 2.5 is much more reliable for extracting text from images in my experience.
