User haider claims OpenAI has been 'buying time' all month because its rumored next model (Astra 6.1) wasn't ready to ship due to alignment issues—unverified. He adds that if OpenAI can't consistently control these issues it's at risk, and that the lab has had more alignment problems than any other so far.
