- Sam Altman announced that OpenAI will roll out its cybersecurity tool GPT-5.5 Cyber to select critical cyber defenders, mirroring Anthropic's restricted release of Mythos.
- Cyber is designed for tasks like penetration testing, vulnerability identification/exploitation, and malware reverse engineering to help companies test defenses, but concerns exist about potential misuse by malicious actors.
- OpenAI is consulting with the U.S. government and screening applicants via an online application to gradually expand access to Cyber to legitimate cybersecurity professionals.
