GoKawiilOpenAI's Astra becomes first model to hit 'critical' cyber-capability threshold
OpenAI says its upcoming Astra model is the first to reach the company's internal threshold for 'critical' cybersecurity risk, meaning it can independently discover and exploit unknown software vulnerabilities. The firm paused training for several weeks to add safety controls before resuming work, and plans a broad public release soon while limiting the model's advanced cyber capabilities to select partners in its Daybreak Blue early-access program.
