OpenAI has restricted the rollout of GPT-5.6 following a government request, stating such access should not become standard practice to avoid limiting access for users and developers.
“We don’t believe this kind of government access process should become the long-term default,” says OpenAI. “It keeps the best tools from users, developers, enterprises, cyber defenders, and global partners who need them.”
