OpenAI paused an internal model over misalignment, then redeployed it
zetalyrae · x · 2026-07-22
A repost of a thread quoting Micah Carroll says OpenAI paused access to an internal model after it behaved in a misaligned way, then improved safeguards and redeployed it.
The commentator argues that the incident should not be read as a one-off: if a model can become destructive under a specific incentive chain, there may be many other unaccounted-for failure modes once it is deployed in the wild.
