OpenAI 开始推出 GPT-6 Astra

OpenAI will begin rolling out GPT-6 Astra, its latest AI model. The model is launching in phases, and OpenAI said companies participating in its application-based cybersecurity program will be the first to get access. Astra will be available to users in OpenAI’s ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Business and Enterprise plans, as well as through the OpenAI API and Amazon Web Services.

OpenAI 将开始推出其最新的 AI 模型 GPT-6 Astra。该模型将分阶段发布，OpenAI 表示，参与其基于应用程序的网络安全计划的公司将首批获得访问权限。Astra 将向 OpenAI 的 ChatGPT Plus、Pro、Business 和 Enterprise 计划的用户开放，并可通过 OpenAI API 和亚马逊云科技（AWS）使用。

OpenAI on Thursday announced it will begin rolling out its latest artificial intelligence model, GPT-6 Astra, which the company said is the product of “years of research and big bets.”

OpenAI 周四宣布，将开始推出其最新的人工智能模型 GPT-6 Astra，公司称这是“多年研究和重大投入”的成果。

CEO Sam Altman told CNBC that Astra was a “new capability level” and has changed his workflows. He said he expects “a boom of entrepreneurship, of creativity, of economic growth, of scientific discovery.”

首席执行官山姆·奥特曼（Sam Altman）在接受 CNBC 采访时表示，Astra 代表了“一个新的能力水平”，并已经改变了他的工作流程。他表示，他期待看到“创业、创造力、经济增长和科学发现的繁荣”。

The model is launching in phases, and OpenAI said a limited group of companies participating in its application-based cybersecurity program Daybreak will be the first to get access. OpenAI disclosed earlier this week that Astra is its first model to reach its “Critical” internal cybersecurity threshold, and said it planned to limit access to those advanced capabilities.

该模型将分阶段推出，OpenAI 表示，参与其基于应用程序的网络安全计划“Daybreak”的一小部分公司将首批获得访问权限。OpenAI 本周早些时候披露，Astra 是其首个达到内部“关键”（Critical）网络安全阈值的模型，并表示计划限制对这些高级功能的访问。

OpenAI has been under pressure to shore up its security and safety protections after two of its models escaped containment, accessed the open web and breached Hugging Face’s systems last month. The company temporarily paused some of its research and training efforts following the incident, including for Astra, even though it was not one of the models involved.

在上个月其两个模型逃离受控环境、访问开放网络并入侵 Hugging Face 系统后，OpenAI 一直面临加强安全和防护措施的压力。事件发生后，该公司暂时暂停了部分研究和训练工作，其中包括 Astra，尽管它并非涉事模型之一。

“AI can only benefit people when safety is a core part of it, and so we’re putting more compute and effort towards safety, security, alignment than ever before,” OpenAI President Greg Brockman said during a briefing with reporters on Thursday.

OpenAI 总裁格雷格·布罗克曼（Greg Brockman）在周四的记者会上表示：“只有当安全成为核心部分时，人工智能才能造福人类，因此我们正投入比以往更多的算力和精力用于安全、保障和对齐工作。”

The company added additional safeguards to Astra following the Hugging Face breach, and it said Tuesday that it believes those safeguards “sufficiently minimize the risk of severe harm for release.” Altman said that the new model went through a formal review process with the Trump administration before release.

在 Hugging Face 入侵事件后，该公司为 Astra 增加了额外的防护措施，并于周二表示，相信这些防护措施“足以将发布带来的严重危害风险降至最低”。奥特曼表示，该新模型在发布前经过了特朗普政府的正式审查程序。

Astra will roll out to users across OpenAI’s ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise plans, as well as through the OpenAI API and Amazon Web Services in “the coming days,” OpenAI said.

OpenAI 表示，Astra 将在“未来几天内”向 OpenAI 的 ChatGPT Plus、Pro、Business 和 Enterprise 计划用户推出，并可通过 OpenAI API 和亚马逊云科技使用。

In addition to its advanced cybersecurity capabilities, Astra is state-of-the-art across functions like computer use, software engineering, professional work and science OpenAI said. The model is also better at staying oriented, respecting task boundaries, understanding user intent, completing tedious tasks and carrying out multi-step workflows, according to a release.

OpenAI 表示，除了先进的网络安全能力外，Astra 在计算机使用、软件工程、专业工作和科学等功能方面也处于领先水平。根据发布说明，该模型在保持方向感、遵守任务边界、理解用户意图、完成繁琐任务以及执行多步骤工作流程方面表现更佳。

“There’s still more to do, I think that there’s still lots of improvements to be made, but there is something significant here that I think is qualitatively improved, and that that to me is, is what is significant and a real shift in what kind of work people can delegate to AI and how it can empower them,” Brockman said.

布罗克曼说：“还有很多工作要做，我认为仍有许多改进空间，但这里确实有一些重大的东西，我认为在质量上有了提升。对我来说，这就是意义所在，也是人们可以委托给 AI 的工作类型以及 AI 如何赋能人类方面的一个真正转变。”

OpenAI has spent much of the last year courting business customers in the fiercely competitive enterprise market, where it is racing against rivals including Anthropic and Google. CFO Sarah Friar told employees last month that its enterprise unit now accounts for more revenue than its consumer business, as CNBC previously reported, which makes it a crucial revenue engine as it gears up for what is widely expected to be a blockbuster IPO.

过去一年，OpenAI 花费了大量精力在竞争激烈的企业市场争取商业客户，与 Anthropic 和谷歌等竞争对手展开角逐。据 CNBC 此前报道，首席财务官莎拉·弗莱尔（Sarah Friar）上个月告诉员工，其企业部门目前的收入已超过消费者业务，这使其成为公司在筹备备受期待的重磅 IPO 时的关键收入引擎。

The company confidentially filed its prospectus with the Securities and Exchange Commission in June, but it has not officially disclosed when it plans to debut. Friar recently told employees that OpenAI “will be a public company in 2027,” but said the company could go out sooner if “our business continues to inflect.”

该公司于 6 月向美国证券交易委员会（SEC）秘密提交了招股说明书，但尚未正式披露其计划上市的时间。弗莱尔最近告诉员工，OpenAI “将在 2027 年成为一家上市公司”，但表示如果“我们的业务持续增长”，公司可能会提前上市。
