Summary
OpenAI is reportedly delaying the broad public release of its newest model, GPT 5.6, and instead plans to share it only with select partners during a preview period. According to The Information, this decision comes at the direction of the Trump administration, which will be approving access on a customer-by-customer basis. CEO Sam Altman told staff that if the limited release goes well, a broader public release could follow in a couple of weeks. The move signals increased government involvement in AI safety and deployment oversight.
