Sam Altman on GPT-6 Astra and Cybersecurity
Sam Altman discussed the GPT-6 Astra model and its status regarding cybersecurity concerns. He emphasized that the training of the model has already been completed, while the paused model is a future one.
Sam Altman on Bloomberg Television:
GPT-6 Astra is not the model whose development was paused due to cybersecurity concerns. The paused model is a future model.
"Training for Astra was completed some time ago. The model we recently talked about pausing is a future model. But in the case of Astra, we have indeed reached a critical level in cybersecurity."
