IBM, OpenAI Join Forces to Scale AI Adoption, Boost Security
The companies will embed GPT-5.6, Codex and ChatGPT Work into IBM's platform and send trained engineers to help clients deploy AI securely.
- On Thursday, IBM announced a strategic partnership with OpenAI to integrate frontier models like GPT-5.6 into IBM Consulting Advantage, helping enterprises modernize legacy systems and deploy AI securely across complex workflows.
- Seeking to accelerate AI business growth after lowering its 2026 revenue forecast last month, IBM is pursuing a model-agnostic strategy combining its own Granite models with third-party tools.
