si-020Established result

Provider technical reports and model cards are self-reports by the organization that built the system, and may withhold architecture, data, and training details.

The GPT-4 technical report states that it withholds such details; model cards are a reporting convention, not an audit mechanism.

Limits of this claim

Self-report status is not an accusation of inaccuracy. It means the figures were not produced by an independent party and cannot be treated as independent measurements.
