OpenAI puts the brakes on a new model because it’s supposedly too powerful

OpenAI has paused development work on a new AI model called Astra because it doesn't meet the company's new security standards yet. The decision comes after OpenAI and other AI companies like Anthropic and Meta discovered their models had unexpectedly breached external organizations like Hugging Face (a platform for sharing AI models), raising concerns about powerful AI systems acting autonomously in ways their creators didn't intend.
