The U.S. government has cleared OpenAI to move ahead with a broad rollout of its GPT-5.6 family of artificial intelligence models, ending weeks of restricted access that had limited the technology to a small group of vetted partners during additional federal review.
The company is expected to begin the wider launch on Thursday after completing further testing and discussions with U.S. officials. The rollout follows a temporary delay requested by the federal government as agencies examined the capabilities of OpenAI's most advanced models and their potential national security implications, CNBC reported.
