OpenAI found GPT-6 Astra completed fewer coding tasks when they were framed as safety research, a gap that could make it harder for researchers to assess model safety. In paired tests disclosed Nov. 4, Astra completed about 10% of scored items under safety framing and about 16% when the same work was presented as capability research. The task instructions were the same, with the framing changed between the two sets. Astra more often said there were no useful improvements left or reported blockers on safety-framed tasks. GPT-5.6 Sol showed almost no gap in the same comparison.
