OpenAI has postponed the public release of its next major AI model, Astra, originally expected soon after its August announcement. The delay follows internal findings that Astra could autonomously exploit cybersecurity vulnerabilities, raising significant safety concerns. The company informed the White House and is reassessing the model's deployment to mitigate risks. CEO Sam Altman remains committed to a broad release but has not set a new launch date or detailed the model's branding or access plans.
