Report: OpenAI hits safety issues with GPT-6.1, pauses frontier RL training
haider1 · x · 2026-10-19
Leaker haider1 reports OpenAI is still hitting safety issues with astra 6.1 (likely GPT-6.1), leaving its release unclear, though later this October remains possible. OpenAI has also paused frontier RL training, meaning the next pretrain — possibly GPT-6.5 or higher — may take longer. It is expected to be another major jump requiring more testing than astra 6.1. Unverified third-party claim.
