maybe they outsourced to ChatGPT the job of checking there haven't been any other projects with names like terra/luna that would evoke extremely negative reactions

Analysis Summary
OpenAI named new models Terra and Luna, which directly reference the Terra/Luna cryptocurrency projects that spectacularly collapsed in 2022 and caused significant investor losses. The naming choice did spark crypto community discussion and comparisons to the failed projects. The author's speculation that OpenAI may have outsourced naming review to AI without catching this overlap is plausible given the outcome, though there's no evidence OpenAI did or didn't perform such checks.
Claims Analysis (3)
“OpenAI named new models Terra and Luna”
Multiple sources confirm OpenAI's GPT-5.6 model family includes Terra and Luna as tier names.
“Terra and Luna names evoke negative reactions due to past crypto projects”
Terra and Luna were major failed cryptocurrency projects (Terra/Luna collapsed May 2022). Crypto.news reports the names 'sparked crypto buzz' and traders compared them to blockchain projects. The negative reaction existed — whether OpenAI should have foreseen this is opinion.
“OpenAI may have failed to check naming overlap with past crypto projects”
The author speculates ('maybe') about OpenAI's internal naming process. No evidence confirms whether naming checks occurred or were outsourced. This is commentary on a plausible oversight, not a factual claim about what happened.
