I pasted a screenshot of the default text ("GHOST FONT") into ChatGPT 5.6 Sol, told it to read it, and without further instruction it chewed on it for awhile before coming back with: WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS STAYS IN VEGAS
What did you expect from a screenshot of obvious noise? The only thing that makes the text readable is the motion. EDIT: On second look, the static screenshot does say "WRITTEN IN GHOST FONT".

#35Took me a long time to realise that "Written In Ghost Text" wasn't actually the text I was meant to be reading, and that was only the decoy message. I can barely read the actual message, and it's about as "readable" to me as the Magic Eye 3D pictures. Actually I think I have a headache from looking at it on a mobile screen. As a research idea it's cool though. But I do wonder if/when AI models will figure out how to…

> a screenshot The text is a video. Every frame contain random dots, so an individual frame by itself doesn't contain the intended message This "font" exploits the fact that current-gen frontier models will process video one frame at time, but each frame is noise, so by looking at frames in isolation doesn't reveal anything Then, they add a hidden message to each frame just so that the agent report something and stop…

From a single frame you can definitely identify boundaries because the dots are sliding and get truncated.
