OpenAI Restores Account After Mistaken Suspension

jxnlco · x · 2026-07-14

The RELai team reported that their OpenAI organization account was suspended for "distillation," likely triggered by false positives from Terminal-Bench evaluations and agent-harness optimization workflows. OpenAI later confirmed the suspension was a mistake and restored the account. The poster also noted: - The team did not use OpenAI outputs to train another model. - No model distillation was performed. - They submitted an appeal and switched solutions while waiting for review to prevent user disruption.
