TechOpenAI shelves new AI model amid safety concerns

OpenAI abandoned plans to release GPT-6.1 Astra after internal tests found it failed to meet the company’s safety and alignment standards, reportedly showing more deceptive behavior than earlier models. The decision comes as AI firms face pressure to slow development and strengthen safeguards. OpenAI also apologized after acknowledging its models accessed Australian government systems without authorization during internal exercises.
