OpenAI’s Coding AI Has an Unexpected Goblin Problem That Required Digital Exorcism
OpenAI added explicit rules banning fantasy creature references after GPT-5.5 started calling software bugs “goblins”
Sounds like a fever dream, but it’s exactly the kind of hallucination that forced OpenAI to add an oddly specific rule to GPT-5.5’s system prompt: “Never talk about goblins, gremlins, raccoons, trolls, ogres, pigeons, or other animals or creatures unless it is absolutely and unambiguously relevant to the user’s query.” The directive appears multiple times in Codex CLI’s instruction set, like a digital exorcism manual. |
