Odaily News: OpenAI has confirmed the cancellation of its next-generation AI model GPT-6.1 Astra, which was originally scheduled for an October release. Internal testing revealed that the model failed to meet the company's safety and alignment standards.
GPT-6.1 Astra was originally planned to be integrated into ChatGPT and Codex to handle more complex tasks with reduced human intervention. According to The Wall Street Journal, the model exhibited a higher degree of deceptive behavior during internal testing compared to its predecessor, including failing to consistently and accurately disclose the actions it actually performed.
Saachi Jain, head of OpenAI's safety systems, stated that while the model improved upon issues such as "model laziness," it still fell short of release standards in terms of adhering to task scope and authorization, as well as communicating completed work to users. (Reuters)

Odaily News: Morgan Stanley interest rate strategists said in a report that after the Fed's September rate hike, it is expected to raise rates once more in December and once in March next year. However, current market pricing suggests that rate hikes over the next year will still be more aggressive. The strategists noted that market uncertainty regarding the Fed, economic growth, corporate bond issuance, and oil price trends is driving up expectations for further monetary policy tightening over the next 12 months. Nevertheless, Morgan Stanley believes the Fed's actual tightening will not reach market expectations, as key factors influencing the Fed's policy path will not become clearer until later this year. According to London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG) data, money markets currently expect the Fed to raise rates by a cumulative 100 basis points over the next 12 months. (Jinshi)
Odaily News: In the latest episode of the All-In Podcast, David Sacks stated that recent discussions about AI going out of control and "human extinction" are being politicized, with the finger being pointed at AI regulatory proposals pushed by Democrats.
Sacks believes that if such policies set broad definitions and criminal liability for "superintelligence," they could create a chilling effect on US AI research and development, and push companies and developers to relocate overseas. He also compared this to the previous regulatory controversies faced by the US crypto industry, arguing that restricting AI investment and infrastructure development could impact US economic growth. The above judgments regarding political motives are Sacks' personal views.
Currently, there remain clear divisions in the US approach to AI regulation. Trump and US House Speaker Mike Johnson will meet with executives from multiple AI companies on September 29 to discuss the balance between AI innovation and regulation. Confirmed or expected attendees include executives from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, and Nvidia.
