OpenAI announced Friday it will preview its newest GPT-5.6 model series with only a group of partners before a public rollout, at the behest of the U.S. government. OpenAI is rolling out a preview version of a more capable new artificial intelligence model to select partners before making it available more widely in the coming weeks, following pressure from the Trump administration to stagger the release. OpenAI is restricting the release of its new AI model, GPT-5.6 Sol, at the request of President Donald Trump's administration.
The Hill reported the story as "OpenAI slow rolls new model release at 'request' of government." The Seattle Times reported the story as "OpenAI limits its latest ChatGPT product to Trump-approved customers during cybersecurity review."
