OpenAI restricts GPT-5.6 Sol, Terra, and Luna to ~20 government partners at White House request

OpenAI released three API models — Sol ($5/$30), Terra ($2.50/$15), and Luna ($1/$6) per million tokens — restricted to approximately 20 government-approved partners at the Trump administration's request to stagger the public rollout. The restriction signals that major-model access has become a lever in executive branch AI policy; no public release timeline has been announced.
