OpenAI’s Sam Altman says GPT-5.5-Cyber to launch for cyber defenders with focus on trusted government access
OpenAI will limit access to the toolkit to vetted users as it expands a restricted cybersecurity product that can test defenses and find vulnerabilities.
- OpenAI CEO Altman announced on Thursday the rollout of GPT-5 and Cyber, a new tool designed for critical cyber defenders that performs penetration testing and vulnerability identification.
- Altman previously criticized Anthropic for restricting its competing tool, Mythos, calling the tactic fear-based marketing; OpenAI is now using the same application-based access model.
- OpenAI is consulting with the U.S. government to vet users with legitimate cybersecurity credentials, addressing concerns the toolkit could be misused by malicious actors.
- During an appearance at Stripe Sessions, Altman discussed his management style, revealing he sends around 39,000 messages a year to OpenAI employees across multiple platforms.
- Altman noted OpenAI is entering its third era, transitioning from a research lab chasing AGI to building a massive token factory, a shift requiring fundamentally different management skills.
