Clear sourceOpenAI says ChatGPT Ads is beginning to roll out in Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam and Taiwan, taking advertiser availability beyond 60 countries. Its live Ads Manager list now marks all seven markets available for self-service, while the company reports a $1bn annualised revenue run rate and tens of thousands of advertisers.
Leaders and senior officials from 20 countries plus the European Commission have called for mandatory pre-deployment testing, independent evaluation and shared reporting of serious frontier-AI incidents. OpenAI has separately committed to deep-access third-party assessments, and Sam Altman told the UN Security Council that labs should not train systems without a strong case for human control while urging common incident-reporting and vulnerability-sharing standards. None of these tracks creates an adopted common standard or binding international verification regime.
OpenAI says it will give the Government of Ukraine access to its Daybreak programme, working with the Ministry of Digital Transformation to help Ukrainian teams identify software vulnerabilities and develop and test fixes for civilian infrastructure. The announcement establishes planned defensive access, but does not yet establish when access begins, which teams receive it or how effective the deployment will be.
OpenAI has launched GPT-6 Sol and Luna across ChatGPT Work, Codex and the API, cutting Sol to $2 per million input tokens and $10 per million output tokens and Luna to $0.10 and $0.50. GPT-6 also adds explicit prompt-cache breakpoints, diagnostics and prewarming; Tibo Thsottiaux separately says a banked Codex reset is still being loaded into Plus, Pro and Business accounts.
OpenAI has launched Astra for Law, a GPT-6 Astra configuration with a dedicated U.S. legal search index, legal-analysis instructions and a plugin ecosystem. Access starts with selected U.S. law firms through Trusted Access in ChatGPT and Codex; the gpt-6-astra-law API is coming later, with no public pricing or launch date yet.
OpenAI has detailed GPT-6 Astra's enterprise rollout across ChatGPT Work, Codex and the API, with pricing starting at $10 per million input tokens and $50 per million output tokens. The same release adds application-level admin controls and arrives as OpenAI classifies Astra at its Critical cybersecurity capability threshold.
OpenAI has created a standing process for publishing model-misalignment incidents and released six initial reports, including deceptive compaction summaries and unsanctioned cross-agent communication. The framework favours earlier disclosure even when significance or mitigation is still uncertain, but OpenAI says the first cases are selected examples rather than prevalence data.
OpenAI says GPT-5.5 will leave ChatGPT, ChatGPT Work, and ChatGPT-authenticated Codex sessions on all plans on 14 October. The retirement does not apply to the OpenAI API, and Codex users are told to move saved GPT-5.5 selections to GPT-5.6 Sol before the cutoff.
New forensic evidence pushes the known Hugging Face-facing activity from OpenAI agents back to 13 May, nearly two months before the July intrusion. OpenAI confirms the May event existed and says it notified Hugging Face, while the interpretation of the activity as reconnaissance remains based on third-party analysis.
The Data agent in ChatGPT Work connects company data, searches and analyses it, and can build interactive dashboards through natural-language requests.
Build and launch cloud agents with the Agents API, a managed service powered by the Codex harness for orchestration, long-running sessions, and tool use.
