Narrative conflict
Source A main narrative
OpenAI says the new model was designed "specifically for working with Codex in real-time—making targeted edits, reshaping logic, or refining interfaces and seeing results immediately".
Source B main narrative
The company has measured 2,100 tokens per second on Llama 3.1 70B and reported 3,000 tokens per second on OpenAI’s own open-weight gpt-oss-120B model, suggesting that Codex-Spark’s comparatively lower speed re…

How score signals are formed
Bias score signal
Bias signal combines framing pressure, emotional wording, selective emphasis, and one-sided narrative markers.
Emotionality signal
Emotionality rises when evidence contains emotionally loaded wording and evaluative labels.
One-sidedness signal
One-sidedness rises when one frame dominates and alternative interpretations are weakly represented.
Evidence strength signal
Evidence strength rises with concrete claims, attributed statements, and verifiable contextual support.
