Primary source Internal intake · 1 reviewed intake signal · Desk window 18:29

TL;DR

The Trump administration has asked OpenAI to introduce its upcoming GPT-5.6 model in a phased rollout, citing national security concerns, according to a report circulated in Israeli tech channels. The gradual release is aimed at mitigating risks as the technology matures.

01 · THE DISPATCH

According to a report circulated in Israeli security and tech channels, the Trump administration has formally requested that OpenAI deploy its forthcoming GPT-5.6 model in incremental stages rather than a full public release. The request is linked to national security assessments regarding the model's capabilities and potential risks. Neither the White House nor OpenAI has issued an official comment confirming the report. The gradual rollout concept mirrors recent U.S. government moves to restrict access to frontier AI models, including earlier orders against Anthropic's Mythos system. No timeline for GPT-5.6's release has been disclosed.
