I've noticed Chatgpt 5.6 Sol High, on the chat interface, inventing words that are a mixture of Portuguese and English. Like "hardcodar" a mix of "hardcode" and the most common verb ending in Portuguese "-ar". Some don't have a single google hit

Do you have any connection to Portugal? I imagine if you have Portuguese in any of your prompts that might bleed into your user profile which becomes a part of every prompt. Alternatively it might use browser language settings

I’ve also noticed this twice now in the autogenerated chat title, recent example: “Explore book locking liveewer”.

Googling it returns no matches but I think it was supposed to be “live viewer”?

they are bugs with the model. Sol regularly glitches out and will type out random stuff even in tool calls. I'm guessing this is when they have capacity problems
