OPENAI REWRITES SAFETY FRAMEWORK AS LARGEST TRAINING RUN STAYS PAUSED

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

OpenAI is rewriting its Preparedness Framework while expanding monitoring, strengthening research-environment isolation, and moving alignment work earlier in model training. It has resumed many smaller or lower-risk workloads after a pause of little more than two weeks, but the largest planned frontier reinforcement-learning run and significant Astra and cyber workloads remain paused. Astra is an unreleased model that may reach OpenAI's Critical cyber threshold. OpenAI has not released the promised technical postmortem of the Hugging Face breach or the evidence behind Astra's possible Critical classification.
