  "account": "OpenAI held its annual DevDay developer conference on Tuesday, unveiling a variety of new products and features. This year's event comes amid increased scrutiny over safety concerns. The company had withheld its latest model, Astra, due to safety issues. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman kicked off the conference in San Francisco with an upbeat keynote, expressing excitement about the company's recent developments. CNBC reporters covered the live event from San Francisco and remotely from Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey. Altman teased the conference on X, hinting at several new products and features the company planned to launch. The company decided not to release GPT-6.1 Astra due to safety concerns, emphasizing their rigorous safety standards. GPT-6 Astra was described as the culmination of years of research and significant investments. OpenAI also introduced two more tiers to its GPT-6 range, namely GPT-6 Sol and GPT-6 Luna. The company hinted at additional models on the horizon. The full DevDay schedule was made available on the event's website, with the opening keynote streamed live online.",
