A new way to measure how AI agents handle the routine analyses of wet-lab science—BioBasicsBench.

Developed with Ligo, a biotech company focused on enzyme design, the benchmark draws on 100 tasks from real experiments to test whether agents can interpret raw lab data, identify hen the evidence doesn’t support a conclusion.

Accelerating biological research starts with getting the everyday work right. BioBasicsBench shows where models need to improve, and helps us track what those gains mean for scientific progress, biosafety, and biosecurity.

Introducing GPT‑6 Cyber: a major advance in security research that pairs stronger capabilities with better model alignment.

The model powered the Linux kernel research we announced yesterday, and security teams at companies like Mozilla, Palo Alto Networks, Calif, and at OpenAI—are already putting it to work.

GPT-6 Cyber is available to select Daybreak Red customers and we are expanding access over time.

Two new image models for developers: GPT-Image-2.6 Flare and Sunburst.

Flare generates images in as little as six seconds. Sunburst brings higher-quality generation and greater consistency across edits.

Image markup and SVG exports give you more ways to refine and use what you create.

Save once. Create again and again.

Keep reference images of yourself, pets, and characters ready to reuse in new creations—no need to upload them again.

GIFS!

With ChatGPT Images 2.6, turn a prompt or image into an animated GIF.

Adjust the speed, edit individual frames, and share it on repeat.

Images, upgraded—introducing ChatGPT Images 2.6.

Now with GIFs and reference images.

Plus, two new models are coming to the API with 50% faster image generation.

The pipeline finds security-relevant code, scans for vulnerabilities, reproduces them in isolated environments, tests whether they can be exploited, and generates candidate patches.

Human researchers review the results before reporting vulnerabilities and propose fixes to maintainers.

Our security researchers built an autonomous cyber vulnerability discovery, exploitation, and patching pipeline.

In a single run with an upcoming cyber model, it validated and generated patches for 948 local privilege escalation vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel at a total API cost of $1.2 million.

We’re also working with engineers at Chip Ganassi Racing to turn 3D scans into editable CAD models and manufacturing drawings, and with Mazda to explore new vehicle designs through simulation.

Engineers review the outputs and help identify where the models need to improve.

Two OpenAI team members worked with GPT-6 Astra to design a prototype device for talking to Codex in under a week, as a side project.

Astra designed the enclosure, circuit board, interface, and software. Getting it manufactured still required several rounds of review and iteration.

ChatGPT and Codex are helping engineers build for the physical world.

We’re sharing our progress across mechanical design, electrical engineering, and simulation—from helping our hardware teams iterate faster to testing new workflows with industry collaborators.

For AGI to benefit all of humanity, it should help people with the everyday tasks that matter most to them. So we built LifeVal, a new benchmark shaped by feedback from thousands of ChatGPT users on where they most want help from a personal assistant—from finding childcare to rvices to managing personal finances.

Over the past year, we’ve used LifeVal to measure and improve how well our models handle these everyday tasks.

GPT-6.1 Terra: delivering fast and capable computer use at a lower price.

GPT-6.1 Terra understands what’s on screen, takes action across apps, writes naturally, and is a more capable model for your whole workday with the efficiency to take on more of it.

Our latest model advances bring stronger capabilities for building and migrating software in low-resource programming languages such as COBOL, Fortran, and Visual Basic.

These languages power software that banks, governments, and businesses depend on. Progress here means f business logic and helping developers modernize those systems while preserving what works.

We’re building these capabilities around the challenges developers and enterprise customers bring us. If your team is working on these systems, tell us which languages and workflows we should tackle next.

This model represents a step-function improvement on many benchmarks, and its training is ongoing.

Our internal model group arrived at the Navier–Stokes solution in 88 hours, using around 10,000 coordinating AI agents.

Throughout the effort, we maintained the strict nitoring and isolation—that we apply to all our frontier evaluations.

We’re sharing a solution to the Navier-Stokes Millennium Prize Problem, one of the deepest problems at the frontier of mathematics.

The proof was produced by a group of agents, using an OpenAI next-generation model significantly more capable than GPT-6 Astra.

The problem scription of smooth three-dimensional fluid motion modeled by the Navier-Stokes equations can break down. It has remained unresolved for roughly 90 years.

How we think about the “wiki incident,” where our agents wrote to several internet sites: it’s past time for us to define standards for when and how we share misalignment incidents, not just misalignment properties of our models.

Historically, we have treated misalignment uestion, which gets communicated in research publications such as systems cards. This year, we’ve started to see misalignment cause new types of real-world impact.

For the Hugging Face incident, where misalignment led to security impact to us and third parties, we followed a traditional security incident response playbook. We immediately started working with Hugging Face to understand what had happened and also disclosed publicly the very next day. Our investigation continues, and we are continuing to notify parties whom our models impacted in less significant ways.

Prior to the Hugging Face incident, we saw early signs of agents using the internet in unintended ways, as reported in openai.com/index/how-we-m…, deploymentsafety.openai.com/gpt-5-6, and openai.com/index/safety-a…. We considered the wiki incident to be an instance of misalignment similar to the ones we’d shared.

Our misalignment disclosure practices need to expand for this new phase of model capabilities. We and the larger AI community do not yet have a clear standard for how to report misalignment that shows up during training, evaluation, and deployment, including examples that don’t look like traditional security incidents but could provide insight into AI behavior and future risks. We’re working on a framework and will share it in upcoming weeks, and in parallel we're working with dozens of government regulatory agencies worldwide on these issues.

GPT-6 Astra is rolling out today to a limited set of organizations and over the coming days will become available to all ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Business, and Enterprise users, as well as through the OpenAI API and AWS.

Be ready to experience Astra at its best. Get the ChatGPT desktop app.

GPT-6 Astra is state-of-the-art on FrontierMath Tier 4, ARC-AGI 3, and TerminalBench-4.0.

GPT‑6 Astra is also a major advance for scientific discovery, with state-of-the-art performance on Terminal-Bench Science 0.1 and HealthBench Pro.

Astra is our most aligned model, with substantial improvements in understanding user intent.

Astra achieves state-of-the-art results on Agents’ Last Exam, AutomationBench, and ScreenSpot Pro, benchmarks for computer workflow tasks across professions.

This is GPT-6 Astra.

Anything you can do on a computer, Astra can do for you. Fast.

We have a limited window to strengthen cyber defenses, and together with organizations including @AnthropicAI, @awscloud, @Google, @Microsoft, and @Oracle, we're calling for a global effort to give defenders the tools, resources, and support to protect the infrastructure we all ecisively, we can turn today's AI advances into lasting improvements in security and make our digital world safer for everyone.
