Research acceleration: The view inside OpenAI

Publisher preview

For AGI to benefit all of humanity, we believe it must be democratically governed. This can only happen through an informed public debate about the capabilities, risks and safeguards of highly capable AI systems. People everywhere need to understand the likely future trajectory of frontier AI, so they can have a meaningful voice in how it develops. Transparency about specific risks, incidents and safeguards is necessary, but not sufficient. We believe the public also needs to understand how the most capable systems are developing, and how they are driving research…

Introducing WeatherNext 3, our most advanced and accurate global weather AI model

Publisher preview

Our flagship AI weather forecasting model now includes real-time satellite data, hourly refreshes, higher resolution, precise precipitation forecasting, and clean energy variables. It’s now integrated across Search, Gemini, Maps, Google Maps Platform, and Cloud. Google has launched WeatherNext 3, an advanced AI model that provides more accurate, high-resolution weather forecasts by using real-time satellite data instead of traditional physics simulations. This update delivers hourly, localized predictions that are five times sharper than previous versions, offering significant improvements for agriculture, renewable energy, and daily planning. You can now access these enhanced…

NeoMME: an efficient Multimodal-native and Multilingual Encoder

Publisher preview

We introduce NeoMME, a family of 260M and 800M multilingual multimodal encoders. Unlike many generative visual language models, NeoMME does not use a separate pretrained vision tower or a causal language model. A single bidirectional Transformer processes both text tokens and raw image patches, and we train the entire model from scratch with a masked discrete-diffusion objective. We fine-tuned NeoMME for visual document retrieval using ColPali's page-image approach. NeoMME-Retriever returns dense and late-interaction embeddings in one forward pass. Both model sizes lie on the ViDoRe v3 Pareto frontier for nDCG@10…

Legora reviewed 41 documents in minutes with GPT-6 Astra

Publisher preview

Legora uses Astra to improve accuracy, completeness, and reliability, while keeping final judgment with legal professionals. Legora is an agentic operating system for legal and professional work, used by more than 100,000 professionals across more than 1,800 in-house legal departments and law firms in over 50 markets. Its legal engineers work directly with customers to understand how they operate and adapt Legora to their end-to-end workflows, from contract and agreement review to legal research. One of the more tedious workflows is financial-statement tie-out: checking every figure in draft accounts against…

Playco cut manual fixes 50% prototyping games with GPT-6 Astra

Publisher preview

Using GPT‑6 Astra, Playco built three themed game prototypes from one grey box foundation, with most working on the first take. Playco is using GPT‑6 Astra in building Playbot, an AI-powered IDE for professional game developers. It connects directly to engines such as Unity and Godot so AI models can edit scenes, play and test games, validate changes, and work in parallel inside the tools developers already use. In game development, a model needs to do more than write code. It must reason about space, visual references, responsive interfaces, game…

Training a coding model to paint watercolours with TRL and OpenEnv

Publisher preview

On 23 August, Surya Narreddi posted a beautiful video of watercolours painted by a language model. The model writes JavaScript through p5.brush, a library that "adds natural drawing tools to p5.js". The video went viral fast, over 1.5M views at the time of writing. The video came with a blog post explaining the training behind an earlier and narrower stage of the project, close-up flowers rather than the full compositions in the video, sadly without open artifacts yet. His site says a full technical report is coming, so ensure you…

Give Your Coding Agents a Memory You Own

Give Your Coding Agents a Memory You Own

Publisher preview

Earlier this year, Software Forgets: Agent Traces Are the Memory made the case that coding agents already produce the record we keep losing. As they search a codebase, try approaches, hit errors, read documentation, and change direction, they leave behind a dense account of not just what changed, but why. While the diagnosis is correct, traces are only potential memory. The session logs of an agent are still just an archive. You cannot grep your way to “why did we move off the streaming parser?” across ten thousand turns. For…

Fine-tuning a 350M Model for Better Structured Outputs in 100 GRPO Steps

Publisher preview

Structured output is one of the most common real-world tasks for LLMs, yet most benchmarks fold it into broader reasoning or extraction scores rather than measuring it on its own. Whether a model reliably returns valid, parseable output in the requested format and shape — schema compliance — is often what decides whether it can be wired into a downstream system at all. Note that the training pipeline described here is not the one used to train the RL model described in the IFStruct blog. This notebook doesn't aim to…

Safety overview: GPT-6 Astra

Publisher preview

Today, we are releasing GPT‑6 Astra, the most capable model we have ever broadly deployed. Astra is our first model to reach the Critical level of cybersecurity capability under our Preparedness Framework. The most important things to know about the safety of this launch are as follows: GPT‑6 Astra is a significant step up in cyber capabilities and meets our Critical threshold. This means that, with the right tools and access, GPT‑6 Astra can find previously unknown security flaws and develop new ways to exploit them across many well-protected systems…

Proactive cyber defense for governments and enterprises

Publisher preview

Today, we’re launching our Fairwind Program, a limited access program for governments and trusted partners to use our most advanced cyber defense capabilities. Defenders wanting to use advanced AI have faced a difficult dilemma: adopt enormous frontier models that could be expensive to deploy and difficult to control across enterprise codebases, or turn to smaller open-weight models that might struggle with complex vulnerability remediation and require teams to build their own tooling and infrastructure from scratch. Until now. Today, we’re launching our Fairwind Program to bring the best of Google’s…
