What We Know

Several outlets report that the Trump administration asked OpenAI to slow, stagger, or otherwise limit the public release of its next AI model. Some reports name that model as GPT-5.6; others describe it more generally as "the new model." Coverage says the request came from the administration (one report uses the phrasing "White House asks").

Reporting indicates OpenAI has responded by delaying or restricting the rollout. The Verge and other outlets frame OpenAI as postponing the release, while CBC reports the company limited access during a testing period to a group described in that coverage as "Trump-approved." The Information frames the administration’s intervention around security concerns, and Reuters, Bloomberg, CNN and others have published similar accounts that the government requested a staggered release.
