Would you rather they cut out whatever information they're trying to "hide" from the underlying HTML so that it never hits your browser and you have no chance of seeing it?
This is a reproducible technical report on how ChatGPT’s UI may hide backend model details via CSS. The DOM includes model strings like GPT-5-2, but CSS properties like `clip-path`, `opacity:0`, and `user-select:none` prevent users from seeing or selecting them.
This may be unintentional UX design—or a systematic obfuscation. Either way, I believe it deserves public discussion.
