Due to Dario hyping it up as a world ending model. If they kept their mouths shut we'd all have it now still.

Where is gpt 5.6?
Victim of the same hype generated by Dario. Now everyone has to walk on eggshells, do limited releases to trusted partners, and nerf their cybersecurity capabilities lest they get deemed “too powerful to release”.
Yeah and our government is continuing to take pages from China's playbook for the last fucking decade... and not the plays that work.

Yeah Anthropic should have just lied about the capabilities of the model and/or hid them until launch. That is surely more ethical behavior.

If not for Dario hyping Mythos and Fable, GPT 5.6 would've released just fine on schedule as a point release without all the fear mongering. It was because Fable was banned that now the government is scrutinizing all models.
GPT 5.6 exists, just not for you and me.
Everyone dislikes when these models are provided for use by the Department of Defense, but we can likely assume these newer, more capable models are being used by the NSA, FBI, CIA and other Five Eyes agencies to develop more backdoors, hack into more things to spy on us all.
We get drip fed the weaker models, but only once all the 0days have been used against us.
