OpenAI limits its newest ChatGPT product to Trump-approved customers during cybersecurity review

OpenAI is restricting the release of its new AI model GPT-5.6 Sol to a small group of Trump administration-approved partners during a cybersecurity review. The decision follows a Trump executive order requiring vetting of advanced AI systems for national security risks, with OpenAI stating the phased release is temporary. Anthropic recently removed two AI models in response to similar Trump directives.
