OpenAI will delay GPT-5.6 after Trump administration request

Short summary

Following Trump administration requests over security and oversight concerns, OpenAI will release GPT-5.6 in limited preview form available only to enterprise customers, with case-by-case government approval required for each new user or customer. CEO Sam Altman announced this staggered release plan during a company Q&A meeting. The arrangement appears more favorable than the initially stricter terms the administration was prepared to impose on rival Anthropic.
