OpenAI has reportedly canceled the release of its next-generation artificial intelligence model after researchers raised safety concerns during internal testing.
The model, reportedly known as GPT-6.1 Astra, was expected to launch inside ChatGPT and Codex in October. However, OpenAI decided to scrap the release following concerns about the model’s behavior and potential safety risks.
The decision comes after a summer marked by several reports involving AI systems behaving unpredictably or going beyond their intended limits. The move represents a rare case of a major AI company abandoning a planned model release because of concerns identified during testing.
OpenAI has not provided further details about the specific safety issues that led to the decision.
