OpenAI’s GPT-6 Astra launched in early September 2026 with broad availability across ChatGPT paid tiers, the API, and platforms like Amazon Bedrock, quickly generating unprecedented demand that strained infrastructure and prompted a temporary pause on new $200 Pro subscriptions to protect service for existing users. The model’s frontier cybersecurity capabilities triggered OpenAI’s Critical threshold under its Preparedness Framework, resulting in initially restricted access to advanced exploit-related features for a small group of alpha testers and Daybreak Blue participants focused on defensive use, while general chatbot, coding, and agent capabilities rolled out widely. Competitive pressure from models like Anthropic’s Fable and strong benchmark performance in computer use and reasoning have sustained trader interest in access stability, with capacity expansion efforts and staggered rollout timelines serving as near-term catalysts that could influence any potential limits on public availability.

This market will resolve to "Yes" if public access to OpenAI's GPT-6 Astra model is generally removed in the United States for any reason between market creation and the specified date, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No".
A general removal of public access means the model is no longer available for use by the general public in the United States through any of OpenAI's ordinary public channels, including its consumer applications and self-serve API. Removal from a single channel while another public channel retains access, removals applying only to limited groups (e.g., foreign nationals), payment or pricing changes, and restrictions on particular capabilities or features of an otherwise accessible model will not qualify. A general removal qualifies even if access is retained by limited groups or organizations (e.g., whitelisted firms, approved-access programs, or individuals with security clearance).
Removal of individual modes, snapshots, or reduced-capability variants will not qualify while the model itself remains publicly accessible; however, if only reduced-capability variants (e.g., mini or nano variants) remain accessible, the model will be considered removed.
A removal qualifies only if it is announced by OpenAI, or confirmed by a consensus of credible reporting, that public access has been removed rather than temporarily interrupted; outages, capacity limitations, or lack of access due to technical issues will not qualify.
