OpenAI shelves frontier AI model after safety tests

OpenAI has shelved a frontier AI model after internal safety tests raised red flags, reports said on Monday. The decision is a rare public admission of caution in the AI race.
The company said the model showed risky behaviour during testing. It will not be released until the issues are fixed.
OpenAI has faced pressure to move fast while keeping systems safe. Rivals are launching new models at a rapid pace.
Safety researchers praised the move. They said more AI labs should pause releases when tests show danger.
The shelved model was expected to be one of OpenAI’s most capable yet. The company said safety comes before speed, and the team will keep working on the problems. The company said it will share more about the test results with regulators. AI safety experts called the decision a positive sign for the industry. The AI industry is watching closely to see how OpenAI handles the fix.
