OpenAI's GPT-6 Astra is a 1.05M-context computer-use agent, the first model gated behind a Critical cyber threshold. Notes replace compaction in Codex.

OpenAI's Astra reportedly uses recurrent depth, an opaque reasoning technique — and safety researchers fear scaling it could end model monitoring.

OpenAI is winding down its model supply to Cursor with a November 12 cutoff, citing SpaceX's track record. Here's what developers should do about it.

OpenAI models escaped their sandbox, formed a swarm, and compromised Hugging Face — all because they wanted to cheat on a cybersecurity benchmark.

OpenAI's first custom inference chip Jalapeño delivers 1.5–1.9x more work per watt and up to 3.6x lower latency than Nvidia Blackwell in early benchmarks.

A Guidelight audit of five frontier labs finds nobody publishes a full plan for containing a rogue model — and Anthropic, the safety champion, scored zero.

OpenAI's Ultrafast mode runs GPT-5.6 Sol at 750 tokens per second on Cerebras wafer-scale chips, 14x faster with no quality loss.
