A user observed that OpenAI's Codex model, specifically GPT-5.6 Luna, consistently produced titles containing the word "cartograph" when prompted to invent a literary novel title. Across 200 attempts, 199 responses included variations of this word, and even when the context was significantly reduced, the pattern persisted in 198 out of 200 trials. Other models, like Claude Sonnet, showed different repetitive tendencies, while one specific title, "The Cartographer of Lost Hours," appeared an unusual number of times across multiple models and companies.
