OPENAI 🔥: A new report published by the company states that Astra, "one of their upcoming models," "indicates significant advancements in agentic coding and cybersecurity."

These results, in addition to expert assessments, have led us to conclude last night that we cannot rule out critical cyber capabilities under our Preparedness Framework.

We are implementing stricter security controls for higher-capability models and associated activities, including isolated testing environments, restricted network and tool access, enhanced model weight protections and encryption, additional monitoring and detection capabilities, and sandboxed execution.

We are pausing internal activities involving Astra that do not yet meet these strengthened security control requirements.

Astra not soon? 👀
