The White House is asking OpenAI to slow roll the release of its new model over safety concerns

TechCrunch
The Trump administration is pressuring OpenAI to limit the release of its new GPT 5.6 model due to national security and safety concerns.

Summary

The Trump administration has instructed OpenAI to restrict the initial release of its upcoming model, GPT 5.6, limiting access to a select group of partners rather than the general public. This move follows an executive order requiring AI companies to submit powerful models for federal evaluation. Agencies including the Office of the National Cyber Director are overseeing the process to prevent potential misuse of frontier AI models capable of identifying and exploiting complex software vulnerabilities.
