Summary
The company first introduced Daybreak in May, shortly after its chief rival Anthropic captivated Wall Street and the U.S. government by launching its own cybersecurity coalition called Project Glasswing. OpenAI said Monday that it is expanding the program to include two different access tiers: Daybreak Blue and Daybreak Red. "As the threat landscape evolves, we're putting frontier intelligence in the hands of trusted defenders before attackers can deploy offensive AI at scale," OpenAI said in a post on X on Monday. Daybreak Blue will give users unique access to OpenAI's advanced general-purpose models, as the safeguards will be altered to allow for defensive security work, the company said in a blog post.
