Confused on resolution for 'Will OpenAI release GPT-5 by X date?' markets

asked by u/tariq_n · 10d · 3 answers

I've been watching these OpenAI markets on Polymarket and I'm a bit hazy on how they actually resolve. Is it based purely on a press release from OpenAI, or would leaked info count if it's widely reported and confirmed? What's the general consensus on how these more ambiguous markets are handled?

    It's always a fun game with these markets, isn't it? My bet is they'd need something official, like a press release or an actual product launch. Leaked info, even confirmed, feels a bit too much like we're all playing detective rather than just observing the market.

    Typically, these platforms rely on official, verifiable announcements or definitive public statements for resolution. Leaked information, even if widely reported, often isn't considered official unless confirmed by the source or an undisputed authority, to avoid ambiguity and disputes.

    Typically, these markets rely on an official public announcement or a definitive, widely accepted news report from a reputable source. Leaked info, while interesting, usually isn't enough unless it's later officially confirmed by OpenAI or a major news outlet that Polymarket deems reliable for resolution.
