  "account": "OpenAI has announced it will provide its AI cyber defense system, Daybreak, and the advanced GPT-5.6 Sol model free of charge to the Ukrainian government. The aim is to bolster Ukraine's defenses against cyber attacks targeting civilian infrastructure such as hospitals and power plants. In 2025, Ukraine experienced nearly 6,000 cyber attacks, according to the national cyber incident response team, CERT-UA. The GPT-5.6 Sol model competes with other AI systems like Anthropic's Mythos and Fable. When asked about the significance of this move, former UK Chancellor George Osborne highlighted the importance of protecting both physical and digital infrastructure to ensure the well-being of civilians. Cybersecurity experts praise the initiative, noting that it could provide a significant advantage to Ukraine given the high volume of Russian cyber attacks. However, the article also notes that while defensive measures can be beneficial, they can also be exploited by attackers. The announcement comes amid increased usage of AI in the Russia-Ukraine conflict, with reports suggesting Russian developers used Anthropic's Claude platform to develop software for swarms of kamikaze drones.",
