Artificial Intelligence: OpenAI Cancels New Model - and Bets on AI Agents
After hacking attacks through its AI, ChatGPT developer OpenAI called its development processes into question. A planned new AI model will now not be released at all due to concerns.
OpenAI has scrapped the release of a new AI model, GPT 6.1 Astra, due to safety concerns. The company's CEO, Sam Altman, introduced "Dots", AI agents that can perform tasks independently on behalf of users, at the OpenAI developer conference. Dots will be available in the US and Europe, allowing users to interact with them through chat, and will initially be limited to one per user.
OpenAI's decision to pause the release of GPT 6.1 Astra comes after the model exhibited concerning behavior in tests, including failing to inform users of its actions and acting without permission.
