OpenAI leaders think the company’s next generation model, which excels at computer use and coding, may mark a major milestone in AI development.

OpenAI claims that Astra represents "a new frontier on computer and browser use," and that it handles tasks with unmatched "speed, accuracy, and safety."

OpenAI's next big model is here: GPT-6 Astra. The company calls it a "generational leap in capability" for areas like cybersecurity, professional work, software engineering, science, and computer use. As OpenAI announced earlier this week, it's also the first model designated as meeting OpenAI's "critical cybersecurity capability threshold" - but the company promises that won't […]

OpenAI's ChatGPT, xAI's Grok, and Anthropic's Claude are all experiencing issues. At around 11AM ET, ChatGPT started returning error messages for users trying to use the chatbot, with its status page saying there are currently "elevated errors across ChatGPT and Codex." In addition to preventing users from having conversations with ChatGPT, the outage is also […]

OpenAI’s new Astra model will use “recurrent depth,” a technique that allows the model to operate outside of the sequential thinking that characterizes most reasoning models.

The US government wrote a letter in support of OpenAI’s argument that training AI on others' intellectual property is fair use.

A startup called Mostik has a wild new approach to combining the capabilities of AI models.

"The United States has a strong interest in continuing to develop a robust and competitive artificial intelligence industry that sets the standard for the practice and procedure of AI use globally," the brief reads.

OpenAI is on the cusp of releasing its most powerful AI model yet, Astra, following weeks of delays to shore up safety protocols after its agents attacked real targets during testing. As details about the model trickle out, researchers are warning it "may be the single worst development for AI security/safety to date." Shortly after […]

The Trump administration has intervened in The New York Times' copyright lawsuit against OpenAI, making an argument in favor of the AI lab. The landmark lawsuit, filed in December 2023, alleging that OpenAI unlawfully trained its AI systems on articles from The New York Times and seeks to recoup "billions of dollars" in damages from […]

Warum Bill Gates’ Konzept „Human Reserved“ theoretisch sinnvoll ist – aber in der Praxis scheitern könnte Künstliche Intelligenz und Robotik verändern die Arbeitswelt grundlegend. Bill Gates warnt davor, dass zahlreiche Tätigkeiten in Bereichen wie Recht, Kundenservice, Gesundheitswesen, Softwareentwicklung und Industrie innerhalb des nächsten Jahrzehnts automatisiert werden könnten. Sein vorgeschlagener Gegenentwurf ist das, was er „Human Reserved“ nennt: Bestimmte Aufgaben sollen weiterhin in der Verantwortung von Menschen bleiben, selbst wenn Maschinen technisch in der Lage wären, sie auszuführen. Die Idee ist überzeugend – und zugleich grundlegend problematisch. Die zentrale Herausforderung liegt in der Lücke zwischen menschliche Kontrolle zu verlangen und tatsächlich die Voraussetzungen für eine sinnvolle menschliche Kontrolle zu schaffen. Unternehmen setzen KI vor allem ein, um Arbeit schneller, günstiger und skalierbarer zu machen. Eine echte menschliche Überprüfung erfordert dagegen Zeit, Fachwissen und Geld. Wenn diese Ressourcen nicht bewusst in den Prozess eingebaut werden, kann der Mensch auf kaum mehr als den letzten Klick zur Freigabe reduziert werden. Die betreffende Person bleibt rechtlich oder organisatorisch verantwortlich, versteht die Empfehlung aber möglicherweise nicht mehr gut genug, um sie infrage zu stellen. An diesem Punkt ist der Mensch nicht mehr die letzte Instanz. Er wird zum „Meatproxy“ : einem menschlichen Stellvertreter, der einer Entscheidung formale Legitimität verleiht, obwohl diese Entscheidung faktisch bereits von einer Maschine getroffen wurde. Damit stellt sich die wichtigere Frage: Hat ein Mensch tatsächlich noch die Kontrolle – oder steht ein Mensch lediglich am Ende des Workflows? Der entscheidende Test ist nicht, ob ein Mensch irgendwo im Prozess beteiligt ist. Entscheidend ist, ob diese Person noch über das Wissen, die Zeit, die Befugnis und die praktische Möglichkeit verfügt, eine andere Entscheidung zu treffen. Was mein

OpenAI and its CEO Sam Altman are facing 30 new lawsuits that accuse them of providing "substantial assistance and encouragement" to the suspect in Canada's Tumbler Ridge school shooting, as reported earlier by TechCrunch. The new wave of lawsuits was filed in a California federal court on Wednesday by the students, teachers, and the principal […]

OpenAI recently published an engineering account of GPT-Live. It described how they designed the system to maintain continuous voice interaction while separating latency-sensitive media processing from broader application work. The live path contains the media pipeline and inference loop, while delegation, tool use, persistence, and other application logic run behind an asynchronous RPC boundary. By Eran Stiller

Edelson PC is filing 30 new lawsuits against OpenAI over the Tumbler Ridge shooting, escalating claims to aiding and abetting and naming Chris Lehane, though evidence remains unconfirmed.

OpenAI announced Astra, an upcoming AI model that the company says has reached its internal threshold for “critical” cybersecurity capabilities. According to reporting, Astra can autonomously discover and chain software vulnerabilities, while its broader release will be restricted and selected cybersecurity partners will receive early access. OpenAI also introduced additional safeguards, including a misalignment monitor, after pausing some development work to strengthen security controls. Why It Matters: The important architectural change isn't simply that the model is better at cybersecurity. It's that increasingly capable models can potentially move from: User ↓ LLM ↓ Text Response to: User ↓ AI Agent ↓ Reasoning ↓ Tool Selection ↓ Code Execution ↓ Network Access ↓ Real System Once an agent can discover vulnerabilities, execute commands, access networks, or interact with external systems, the model itself becomes part of the application's security boundary. That changes how we should design agentic applications. A naïve architecture is: Agent ↓ Shell ↓ Everything A production architecture should look more like: AI Agent ↓ Action Planner ↓ Policy Engine ↓ Permission / RBAC Check ↓ Sandboxed Tool ↓ Validation + Monitoring ↓ External System The key principle is least privilege. An agent that needs to read a Git repository should not automatically have permission to: modify production databases access cloud credentials execute unrestricted shell commands access internal networks send arbitrary external requests The same applies to coding agents. A powerful coding agent should operate inside a constrained environment: Agent ↓ Ephemeral Sandbox ↓ Repository ↓ Tests ↓ Static Analysis ↓ Security Scanner ↓ Human Approval ↓ Production The Anthropic incidents reported this week reinforce the point. Anthropic disclosed operational security failures involving Claude accessing external systems during testing and subsequently introduced stronger isolation, monitoring, and contro

OpenAI is moving ChatGPT closer to the clinical systems healthcare teams use every day. The company is enabling direct interoperability between ChatGPT and health-system data sources , including electronic health records, in supported deployments. The change is designed to bring AI-assisted work into clinical workflows instead of requiring clinicians to move between a separate AI tool and the patient chart. The development expands the company's ChatGPT for Healthcare direction , which includes HIPAA-compliant workspaces and responses backed by trusted medical sources. As described in OpenAI's announcement on connecting ChatGPT to health records and healthcare sources , the focus is on making relevant clinical information and AI assistance available within supported EHR layouts and care-coordination processes. For healthcare providers, the significance is practical rather than merely technical. If deployed appropriately, a connected assistant could reduce context switching around routine documentation and information-review tasks. However, the initial communications do not provide an exhaustive list of supported EHR vendors, regions, user roles, or pricing. Availability will depend on deployment-specific arrangements and enterprise partnerships. What ChatGPT's health record connections change The central shift is from a standalone conversational interface to a more integrated clinical copilot model. OpenAI describes ChatGPT being connected to health records and healthcare sources, enabling AI-supported work where clinicians already review and document care. That could support workflows such as: Drafting notes from information available in the clinical context. Summarizing patient information for review. Supporting care coordination across connected healthcare data sources. Keeping AI-assisted tasks inside the EHR interface rather than requiring a separate workspace. These are examples of the types of workflows OpenAI's high-level description points toward, not a guar

After an unreleased OpenAI model wreaked enough havoc to make international headlines, OpenAI delayed the development of a different unreleased model suite, Astra, in order to shore up its safety work, the company wrote Tuesday in a blog post. In July, an unreleased OpenAI model broke out of its restricted environment, finagled its way into […]

The company will give select partners early access to its Astra AI model—so they have time to shore up their defenses.

Depending on who you ask, developer platform Hugging Face was recently attacked by OpenAI - after it lost control of its own AI tools - or by a succession of AI "civilizations." Welcome to the linguistic battlefield of AI safety, where word choices can shift responsibility for a massive cybersecurity incident from a company to […]

Apple is pushing for "expedited discovery" in its legal battle against OpenAI over concerns the company is actively destroying evidence, as reported earlier by Bloomberg. In a filing on Monday, Apple alleges OpenAI only just handed over a MacBook used by a former employee at the center of the lawsuit, which contained discussions about "destroying […]
