White House Asks OpenAI to Delay New Model Release Over Safety Concerns
AI News Flash: OpenAI’s latest model GPT-5.6 will be released in a completely different way than before. According to The Information, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman told employees this week in an internal meeting that the Trump administration is requiring the company to “review each customer’s access eligibility on a case-by-case basis” during the preview period, with no public release and limited to a few specific partners. If this limited release goes smoothly, OpenAI hopes to do a broader public release “in a few weeks”.
