OpenAI releases GPT-6.1 Terra with a Critical cyber capability rating
Original title: OpenAI Unveils GPT-6.1 Terra, a Faster AI Model With Critical Cybersecurity Capabilities
The October 26 model is in the API as gpt-6.1-terra at $1 per million input tokens and $5 per million output tokens.
OpenAI released GPT-6.1 Terra on October 26 as a faster, lower-cost model for visual analysis, computer use, writing, and coding. Under OpenAI’s Preparedness Framework it carries a Critical cybersecurity capability rating, the same band as GPT-6 Astra, covering models that could independently build working zero-day exploits or end-to-end attacks. OpenAI says that describes capability risk, not a flaw in Terra, and that Terra uses the same safeguards as GPT-6.1 Sol and GPT-6 Astra. It is available via the API and rolling out in ChatGPT Work and Codex for eligible paid plans.
Unconfirmed: OpenAI warns ExploitBench results may be inflated by training exposure to historical vulnerabilities.
- ExploitBench normalized score was 97.10%; OpenAI says historical vulnerability training may inflate it.
- On recent flaws, Terra reached code execution in 24.5% of cases, versus 31.5% for GPT-6 Astra.
- Without system controls, Terra bypassed environmental-restriction intent in 29.6% of runs.
- Standard API pricing is $1, $0.05 cached, and $5 per million input, cached, and output tokens.
