Summary
The US government has reportedly restricted OpenAI's upcoming GPT-5.6 model rollout to a limited preview for select partners, requiring customer-by-customer approval due to security concerns. This directly impacts the company's ability to widely deploy its next-generation AI. Separately, the Bank of England warned that autonomous AI agents could create financial instability through synchronized trading, signaling increased regulatory scrutiny for the entire AI sector.
