US Approves OpenAI GPT-5.6 Launch After Security Review
- On Thursday, OpenAI unveiled ChatGPT Work, an agent powered by GPT-5.6 designed to execute complex tasks across applications and files, marking the company's latest push into workplace automation.

- The launch positions OpenAI to compete directly with Anthropic's Claude Cowork, which gained traction for autonomous multi-step task execution among enterprise knowledge workers.
- OpenAI is also launching a Chrome extension bringing ChatGPT directly into the browser sidebar, eliminating the need for a dedicated proprietary browser and making the platform accessible across existing browser ecosystems.
