OpenAI’s new model, GPT 5.6, will be shared with select partners, rather than the public, due to government pressure. The Trump administration has been reviewing the model and working closely with OpenAI on its release. This decision follows Anthropic’s voluntary approach to keeping its powerful models under wraps, citing concerns about misuse. Cybercriminals are increasingly using generative AI tools to write malware and execute ransomware attacks. The government’s push for federal oversight of new models raises questions about the balance between security and innovation.
