OpenAI previewed its most capable model yet, GPT-5.6, and showed it to the U.S. government before releasing it narrowly -- the second frontier lab in a month to route a top model through a government gate, as Five Eyes agencies warn the AI cyber threat is 'months, not years.' Then we flip it: two research drops racing the other way. Program-as-Weights compiles plain English into a model small enough to run offline on a laptop and still match a giant fifty times its size, and MrFlow makes AI image generators up to ten times faster with no training at all. The whole day comes down to one question -- who actually owns the model.
