OpenAI will delay GPT-5.6 after Trump administration request
OpenAI will limit the release of its upcoming GPT-5.6 model following a request from the Trump administration to address security concerns.Summary
OpenAI has agreed to release its forthcoming GPT-5.6 model in a restricted preview for select enterprise customers following a request from the Trump administration. According to reports, CEO Sam Altman informed employees that the government will oversee access to the model on a case-by-case basis during this period to mitigate potential security risks. This decision follows a more restrictive directive issued to rival company Anthropic, which was forced to suspend access to its models for non-US citizens. These developments have caused concern within the tech industry, as they suggest a more heavy-handed regulatory approach than the administration's previously stated goal of prioritizing speed and export growth in the AI sector.
