- OpenAI responded by expanding its Daybreak cybersecurity service into Blue and Red tiers and offering a restricted specialist model, GPT‑5.6‑Cyber, to vetted Red partners for advanced defensive work.
- Anthropic froze a planned price increase for Claude Sonnet 5 and said it will keep the launch discount permanently to protect customers from rising token costs.
