OpenAI has postponed the launch of its GPT-5.6 AI model after the US government asked it to limit the release to trusted partners only. The move reflects growing anxiety in Washington about advanced AI capabilities being deployed too quickly. OpenAI complied with the request and held back a full public rollout.
